The l shaped piece is what makes the whole thing a zero waste feeder. the bottom of the piece will be attached just high enough off the bottom of the inside of the feeder to allow food in so the chickens can get some. however it needs to be at or below the level of the piece we attached in step 4..

Just added 4 new pullets and man they waste food!! i am scraping it up and putting it back in the feeder every day. using crumbles it just is a total waste if you don't have some way to stop them tossing it all out on the ground.. Costs of the diy no-waste feeder this particular container cost me around $12 at walmart, and is large enough to hold two 50-pound bags of chicken feed , with room to spare. a hundred pounds is a lot of weight pushing outwards on the side of the container.. Feed store feeders cost a little more than our no waste feeders. they are made of pvc, metal or plastic. when hung at chicken head level, the chickens can waste a fair bit of food by flinging it out of the feeder with their beaks onto the ground, where it may not get eaten. when it rains, the feed could get wet..
