The PERFECT FEEDER

I prefer to think of it... "like an artist - working in broad and bold sweeps."

Aha...that almost makes me sound smart...rather than having the brain patterns of a pre-pubescent boy.

Normal conversation at work...

"Cindy, why are you laughing?"

"Er...can't tell you. It's not appropriate."

*sigh*

See, I like you. That sort of thinking leads to great things

Imagine if your answer was "Oh just the same old boring stuff."

See the difference? Laugh on, girl!

What I need is a version of this that the goats won't figure out faster than the chickens!!! I have yet to see, or come up with myself a goat proof chicken feeder!

I love it!!! I want it!! NOW!!!!! If only just to stop them from throwing their food hither, thither and yon!! I swear!

There's a fifty pound bag of feed buried out there in the scratch yard right now just on account of those silly girls tossing it everywhere!! I could leave them for a week and nobody would have to feed them! Only by virtue of the resident rodent patrol (cat and dog) do I NOT have a mouse or rat problem.

I seen one just like that in a new magazine for GRIT I picked up last week. It was identical except it was metal. I think someone took this idea and ran with it.

www.grandpasfeeders.com it is $195 for 20lbs and $275 for 33lbs plus shipping.

They added sides so chickys can't eat from the sides and get hurt when the other chick steps off.

With my luck, I'd walk outside to see a bloody mess and chicken heads inside the feeder.

Now THAT looks like a death trap for sure. It looks like a chicken version of a mouse trap. Yeesh!

How about a grid of wire rods, 2 or 3 of them, across the feed access. This should let chickens get their head in, but not the goats?
