10. Tiered Hanging Feeder
A tiered hanging feeder allows multiple chickens to feed at once while keeping feed contained. Using several levels reduces crowding and waste.
- Materials Needed: Hanging baskets, chains, hooks, small trays for each tier.
- Construction Tips: Stack baskets or trays vertically, ensuring each tier has enough space for chickens to feed comfortably. Suspend securely from a strong ceiling hook.
- Benefits: Efficient for medium to large flocks, reduces fighting, and minimizes feed scattering. Tiered feeders are perfect for maximizing vertical space in smaller coops.
This feeder design encourages social feeding while keeping feed organized and minimizing spillage.
