Farm-Tuff 8 lb. Chicken Feeder with Adjustable Legs

Feed gets stuck and doesn't distribute to the feeding pan. The whole center can be full of feed but gravity can't get it to the chickens.

I was really hoping this feeder would work perfect. Unfortunately it’s more a pain and wasteful. I had about 4lbs of layer pellets in it and it got clogged and didn’t drop anymore feed down. When I went to pick it up to get feed down the whole bottom came off spilling 4lbs of feed everywhere. Thankfully I was still in the chicken run so they could eat it up and we didn’t waste all of it. The adjustable legs and cover on top would have made it a perfect feeder if it actually worked.

My baby chickens are about 4 weeks old and ready for a bigger feeder. This one can be placed on the ground or there are 2 levels with the adjustable legs. I set mine up with the shorter legs and "the girls" love it! They are wasting less feed and seem to find it easy to use. The size holds quite a bit - enough for my 6 chickens. I like that it's made of sturdy plastic and won't rust. I'm planning to move them out into their permanent chicken coop in a few weeks, once they are bigger.

Base comes off very easily causing feed to spill out everywhere. Second level of the legs does not snap open and legs close if nudged or bumped.
