DIY Chicken Feeder Plans - PVC & Automatic!

This plan builds THREE gravity feeders with one 10' length of pipe (the total number of feeders you will need depends on your flock size).

We've personally used this feeder design for 3 years in our flock, and here's why we LOVE it:

• Less than half the cost to build than commercially available versions
• No footprint needed inside run
• Holds more feed than most commercial options
• Keeps water out (mold-resistant)
• Super easy to clean
• Chickens can't scratch feed out on the ground, which keeps rodents away

ALL the details you need are in this plan including step-by-step instructions, tools needed, and full material list with Home Depot links.

PLUS, a BONUS page with tips on mounting, filling, and cleaning these feeders.

Each feeder holds about 20lb of feed, which will last 4 birds at least 2 weeks. The amount of feed your chickens consume will vary based on their access to other sources of food. The more your birds free range, the less feed they eat.
