We are using 5 gallon buckets for our feeder and water, however the chickens love to roost on them. You can buy a 5 gallon anti-roost topper, but they are about $25 which is crazy. I designed this to use very little material.
Print with the following settings
- 4 Walls
- 3 bottom layers
- 0 infill
I printed mine from PLA+ at 0.25 layer height.
Once you're done printing, just secure it to the top of the 5 gallon bucket lid, I opted for duck tape, but will likely figure out a better method. I lightly sanded mine to make sure it was smooth to ensure that they couldn't get a good grip on it.
