MaggieMcHen Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Yes I use one for layers mash when I give it to the girls, very good. I also use a water 'bucket' of galvanized metal. it's like a bucket on its side and the water doesn't get as dirty as it does in a glug and the hens prefer it to the nipple feeder. this might or might not be a link!! http://www.domesticfowltrust.co.uk/products/info_bdl.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 They will make less mess with a feeder that has 'spokes' around the eating bit so they cant flick food out - something like this http://www.solwayfeeders.com/productsdetail1.asp?STOCK_CODE=SF0023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
