Hanging feeders and waterers

[Country Quail Boy FL]

Where is the best place to buy hanging feeders and waters the hold a large quanity of feed?

These people have the less-mess Johnny house feeder system. I put one in my J-house, figure I can make the next one myself out of PVC. With 25-30 birds this feeder only needs checked every two weeks. Could probably make something very similar on a larger scale for fly out pens.

Get a 5 gallon bucket drill 3/4 - 1" holes in the side at the bottom. Build a trof out of plywood to attach to the bottom.

I like that 5 gallon bucket idea. I ordered from Smith's poultry supply. A word of caution I used to have one of those plastic waterers with the base that screws off, it only lasted 2 or 3 years in the weather and broke. I don't remeber the brand some may be better than others. It may be adviseable to get the galvanized type and paint them inside and out so they'll last a long time.
