Automatic Chicken Feeder

Check out the latest addition to the chicken coop - The Automatic Chicken Feeding System. It is not fully automatic I suppose because you do still have to fill it with food but that is about it. No more walking in the coop and filling the tiny feeder that we had, and this one is much cleaner. In this video I run through the build process for this simple feeder design and also show it in action. This should hold enough food for a few days at least and will cut down on the amount of time spent cleaning out and filling the smaller feeders. This is also much better than the feeders that sit on the ground as they get full of dirt quickly and need to be cleaned. I am using 4" drainage piping for this project which is much cheaper than the 4" schedule 40 PVC. The fittings for the drainage pipe are also much cheaper keeping the cost of this project under $20.
