Verified Reviews for Chicken Feeders & Waterers

changed the water container to this style, much easier to clean and catches more rain water. better that the rounded ones

Our girls absolutely love it! We put apples, greens, corn on the cob in and they gobble it up. Our hens are no longer bored and eat food in the holder that they won't touch otherwise. It's a win win for them and us.

The chickens seem to like pecking at it, keeps them amused. The string could be (way) longer.

Our girls love this toy. Generally one does all the work and the others get all the treats but it seems to keep them happy and entertained. A little messy to fill but I just fill it in the chickens run so they end up with easy pickings.

This feeder attaches securely to the mesh wall and keeps the food dry. But after a few months of use I have identified a few problems: it's quite big and it's impossible to make sure the oldest food is consumed first as you just top it up on top of the oldest food; it is extremely difficult to clip and unclip to empty and clean (Omlet promised me a replacement one in case mine was faulty but this has failed to materialise); and finally, my girls now have damaged feathers on their chests because the edge of the feeder when they put their heads in and out is abrasive. I wondered what was causing it and have now worked it out.

I am using this to give them something to play with, but also to give them more shell grit. So I mixed shell grit with bird seed and hung it in their Elgu. At first they acted scared of it, but once they got the idea, they emptied it over a few days.

My chickens soon got the hang of this and enjoy pecking out the corn. Keeps them nicely distracted while I clean out their coop! The only slightly annoying thing is that if it gets wet it can clog up at the bottom a bit. Not a big deal but something to keep an eye on.

Got the hanging peck toy to keep my girls happy if in their Eglu run. They love it! One pecks and one collects - a winning team! The fact you can adjust the string length is great - was able to heighten it to keep them interested

This is easy to put together and hang up in the run. I just filled it with corn or dried meal worms and was an instant hit with my girls. Well designed and well-made I think it will last a long time. Highly recommended.

I bought this because I had no way of using the feeder and drinker supplied when I bought my Eglu up - I didn't need to run. These are grand, BUT I had to make a modification to them because they didn't fit together very well. That said, they are fit for purpose.
