I had chickens and ducks and I was tired of them spilling their feed all over the ground so I made a feeder.

Materials:

• Plastic trash can
• 4″ – 5″ PVC elbows
• Tube/Tile sealant
• Saws All (to cut holes)

Instructions:

Cut as many holes the diameter of the PVC elbow around the bottom of the can with the saws all as you want openings for the food.  The elbows should face down inside the can. Make sure it will rest at least an 1″  above the bottom of the inside of the trash can to allow the feed to go below it.

Put the elbow in and seal it up with tub/tile sealant. Glue a small piece of PVC pipe or other plastic under the elbow inside the can to help stabilize it. I cut a 1″ piece off a 1″ PVC pipe.

Only fill the feeder up about halfway up the pipes. The weight of the food might loosen up the elbows if you put too much food in the can and you want the food to sat fresh.

Now you do not have to feed the chickens every day and the food stays dry and clean.
