I have about 10-14 chickens and feeding them with traditional “buckets” attracted a lot of rats. So I started feeding them once a day, just enough so they would eat all the food I gave them …
This got me thinking … what if I would go on vacation or got sick … someone would have to come and feed my chickens every day … that's not a pleasant job for someone who does not own chickens. So I started out trying to make something to feed them for a longer time without attracting rats and other vermin.
I also wanted to use some parts that are readily available so I went to the hardware store and found me some sanitary pipes that I thought would do just fine … this is what grew out of that project.
I now have 3 systems in my chicken-coop and they each hold about 7 kg of food. Since I have 2 types of food and they (the chickens) like one type about twice as much as the other I color-coded the pipes (white and black) so I would know what food to put in what feeder. This system feeds my (10-14) chickens for about 2 weeks and … I have not seen any rats for a long time now.
I printed my parts in ASA but PETG would probably be just as good a choice … PLA might work as well, but I'm not sure it will stand up to the sunlight and rain that good.
The feeders have been part of my chicken-coop now for quite some time and the chickens as well as I like it … so I thought I would share it with you …
