Plum Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Do you have a hen with a hairdo that would cause problems but otherwise I don't understand why they would have a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammiboo Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 all 8 of my hens do not have an issue with the grub even the new ex batts. do they use it at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JillM Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Have you tried it at all sorts of different heights? All my chickens are fine with theirs, even the cream legbars with their crests... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 Maybe it is the food rather than the container that they aren't keen on. Is the use by date OK etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan08 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 We have the Eglu Go feeder and Water that came with the go and I ordered the purple glug and grub afterwards. I have no idea why, but my girls all prefer the purple grub to the yellow Go feeder. I always need to fill the purple one up before the yellow one, don't know if it is the shape or the colour. It isn't position because I move them around all the time. We also have the ones that turn upside down and stand on the floor - I have given up on those though as they just end up kicking muck into it.
