***Angle of Repose (not resolve)
1x 10' 4'dia
3x 4' elbows
3x reducers (3in to 3in)
6x caps
My husband was listening (an engineer) and I thought he was going to jump out of his seat after the third time!)
Isn’t that a T instead of an elbow? And do you mean a 4” to 3” reducer? I’m trying to get my list done on the Lowes app. Thanks!
@@halfacrehomemaker How did the build end up working for you?
Are you still responding to this?? Seems like it's been a year since last comment with no response. If you are, would you mind verifying components? Is it 3" to 3" adapter?
Best video on this topic! Thank you
Nice work! Definitely building some of those.
Thanks! I didn't mention it in the video but I PVC cemented them together, and would highly recommend it! If you ever go to move them and they aren't and also have feed in them it'll be a nice little mess 🤣
Nice video, great idea 👍
Hi there. Thank for sharing. I like this idea. Would love if you have a video with thus attach to the 50 gallon or so buckets. Have a great day.
And easy solution for they would just be, making 4+ of the feed outlet elbow and making legs for the 50gal bucket, then it would keep the bucket relatively low for easy filling and cleaning
@@ianmburke awesome. Thank you! Will give this a try! Thanks for the fast respond as well!
instead of using a Y fitting could you use an 90 deg. elbow and the same inner reducer to stop the feed from flowing out?
Maybe... but my first thoughts are: 1. It would not sit flat being on a 90, 2. The reduction might have to be greater as the 90 would be "directing" the flow on the backside to move outward. That being said, farming is all about experimenting so try one with a 90 and see how it goes? They are probably only 2$ let me know how it goes
I currently have a similar pipe opening but attached to a 5 gallon bucket, like the ones you find on Amazon, and my chickens somehow get ALL the food out and dumps it on the ground. Do your chickens do this?
They do that every once in awhile but they usually seem to do that when too many are trying to feed at once.
Does that reducer fit inside the pipe? How did u get it into the y
It fits right inside of the y then the pipe above holds it in place (but it does fit inside the pipe as well just a tight squeeze
Great video. Thumbs up with out a doubt. Angle of "repose" is the correct term fyi.
I know! That's what late night videos do to you haha I did make note of that correction in the comments directly after posting the video
Great video! Do you think they would still work with a 3 in. to 2 in. reducer? Thanks
I'm sure they would, the reducer is only to lower the spill out relative to the output pipe, if that makes sense. Without the reducer the feed will come pouring out but with it, it stops before it overspills edge
@@ianmburke Thank you!!!!
Ian,
How did you fit that 3 inch adaptor inside a 3 inch tee? Isn't the pipe size designations measuring the inside dimensions...meaning the 3x3 adaptor would have a larger overall or outside dimension trying to fit inside a smaller/actual 3 inch tee fitting. Not really built for any fitting to go in there. Need an explanation that will make sense. Thnx
Excellent. Is there any possibility that the food at the very bottom of each feeder can become stale, or will you be able to dismantle the pipes once in a while to empty and clean it? How far down can the chooks reach for the food? Thanks for sharing.
So I actually thought the same thing and left them just snug fit so I could take it apart and clean it but their necks/beaks reach all the way to the bottom so they clean them completely out
@@ianmburke thank you, was wondering the same thing!
What about a 90 degree bend at the bottom instead of a Y?
U could easily fill it with gravel at the bottom
How much feed do these hold? Do you know?
I would say roughly 30lbs from my best estimate- I'm going to be connecting them all with y pipes and extending the height to hopefully fit exactly one 50lb bag of feed
Any update on how this is working for you?
Still works perfectly and the birds love it. I still love the easy fill, and volume being a full 50lb bag it makes my life a lot easier and keeps the food from getting poop in it
Ever consider hooking an electric blanket up to the power in the bed?
I am not sure if this comment was meant for the chicken feeder or the Jeep 😂 if for the Jeep I do indeed have a 12v heated blanket for camping
How did you get that smaller piece inside
I just dropped it in, it's slightly smaller than the inner diameter
What down pipe did you use.
It's 4 inch diameter drainage PVC and the height would just be however tall you want based on the volume you want it to hold
That looks like a 90 degree? It doesn’t look like a y. Is it a 90?
That is a 'sanitary t'. T describing the hole alignment relative to one another and the 'sanitary' part describing the controlled flow direction. There are also sanitary y's as well
Was that a cut in your video?? Can that happen? What's next, editing?
'these are not the drones you're looking for' 🧤 I don't know what you're talking about... Also editing is for overachievers...
Looks like they would be a pain to fill.
It's actually really easy and spill free with the simple little adapter: ua-cam.com/video/OTgvW0R5bHU/v-deo.html
