This is the scene at my feeder almost 24/7. Anyone have the same problem and what do you all do about birds and squirrels eating your grain? Are we just expected to feed all wild things out there?
 
I had to totally rework their pen to keep them out of the feeder. It is nice and predator proof now, so actually that was a plus. LOL

I would only give them feed in their secure pen. My feed use sure dropped when I finished fixing mine.
 
I'm sorry but that's cute "We're taking a trip in our favorite rocketship." The one little squirreley is waiting for take off. Is there anyway you can put the food in a pen or are the girls free range? IDK if hanging the feeder would help. Making a top would cut back SOME, esp if they are pooing in it.
 
I had been thinking of using the bird feeder cones that go around the bottom of the pole used to hold up the feeder, but then I was like, "How do the ducks get their food?"

We use that method somedays, but man, every time we get one, 5 more seem to appear! I guess it gives my DH something to look forward to....boys and their BB guns ;-)
