    Hi I came across your video. It is July 2024. How are your confer plants doing? And Question: have you found that by using a coffee filter at the bottom of your pots molds at all. I hear about this trick and have used it on occasion but I just don’t know about end results. Any info would be helpful thanks.

    Very inexpensive, but I see a problem that my chickens have. The picks of the 4 chickens will be too close, and one of my chickens whose name is Napster, picks the other chickens, she wants to eat without company, so the others have to go away and come back later, but in the morning, they are all hungry. So this DIY will not work for me. I need dividers inside so the 4 chickens do not see each other while feeding.

    Ok, what I did is take a dollar store plastic bowl and put it inside my bucket. You may have to cut the bowl to size. Then I marked a line at the top of the bowl. I used a door bolt or door knob drill bit to cut about 10 holes in the bucket above the level of the bowl. The bowl in the bucket is the key. Keeps the feed available to the chickens. I put a center column in the bowl made from a large water bottle and screwed it to the bottom of the bowl. Holes in the bottom of the inner water bottle allow feed to go into the bowl. No waste. Put lid on bucket and an upside down large circular pan on that to create a drip line to keep out rain water. Probably need to do a video.

    Saw on another UA-cam channel: those elbows have male and female end. They cut off either one end or the other. Figure it out. Put the angled part inside and other outside (insert male into female, with bucket wall in between! Voila!

    Thanks much. Great video. I read through many of the comments. Many great suggestions. I used a grinder with sanding wheel to grind the nubs back to smaller nubs. Elbows squeezed in nicely and the remaining, small nubs hold the elbows in tightly. No need for caulk. One extra step, now that the elbows go in further, they are too long and run into each other inside the bucket. Cutting about an inch off of two of them (opposite facing) fixes this. Thanks again!

      One more thought… I need to make one more bucket feeder. This time I’ll make the holes higher by an inch so I don’t have to shorten the elbows. The longer elbows make for neater chickens.

    Hey your video is quite interesting. I am thinking of implementing it. Just one issue, i have a lot of rat, and once they smell all the feed, it will be their party. How can i stop that?

  • @ruffneckranch
    @ruffneckranch Рік тому

    3 years old not sure if you still use this method, but I’ve found with the hard plastic 55 gallon drums you can just force those nubs of the elbow in. Bonus perk is it locks them in and them suckers ain’t goin anywhere.
