I have the same issue, only it is sparrows and finches. There are not that many of them, maybe a dozen, and they don't seem to eat a lot of the chicken feed so I guess it's a battle I choose not to fight.

You can use a treadle feeder - there are plans on byc, Also there are some for sale online.

You can cover your vents with hardware cloth.

set a trap and catch the intruders, dispose of them.
