RE: [CHICKENS-101] Re: How to manage free range egg laying in odd places?

 

            We have a few of those, but the birds don’t seem to use them much.  I am going to try the hole in the bucket with the lid on to see if being more “cavelike” will draw them in.  If it works, great………if not, another feeder.  A bucket with a hole makes a great feeder, especially with the lid on it!.

Why cut a hole in the bucket?  Just lay it down, put a rock/brick on either side so it doesn’t roll, and put your nesting material in it.
