I was going to suggest a carefully placed electric fence, but then I remembered the video of a goat licking an electric fence. So a feeder puzzle is probably futile too.
They also have a tongue that is more agile than a chicken neck. So putting something 'out of reach' is probably futile. NONE of these synthetic chemicals have been checked for their effects in combination with each other.įor more information, enter ‘plastic’ in the search feature of the Mercola website. Chicken.Lytle : Goats climb trees and mountains. Measure your sides and build frames about 4 feet long or what ever you need to cover the sides of your box and have them easy to handle. The bracing and solid top are strong enough for a goat to play on. It only needs to be a bout a foot and a half tall. (Not to mention the horrific environmental damage caused by the manufacture and disposal of plastics.) Build a sturdy box as long as you need it and 2 feet wide. *This includes so-called ‘food grade’ plastics, and ‘BPS-free plastics.* The substitutes for BPA are possibly even worse – and there are many, many other chemicals of concern in plastics. Many are actually proven to cause problems- from cancer to endocrine disruption. This means that we can assume that our bodies have not developed was to handle these synthetic chemicals. Most people are unaware that virtually every type of plastic releases chemicals that are foreign to our bodies, either by outgassing or by contact – synthetic chemicals that neither birds nor mammals evolved with. And humans evolved eating a lot of birds, so no problem – UNLESS the land, plants, and insects have been sprayed with synthetic chemicals. These are things that the ancestors of chickens, and other birds, evolved to eat. Grass, weeds, bugs, etc are not made of synthetic materials. I chose 1” – but, you can definitely use a bigger bit if you’d like. Use the 1” drill bit and drill to drill the holes where you indicated. This is not an exact science and does not have to be perfect. I just eyeballed where I wanted them and tried to space them out evenly. I marked the holes right at the top of the metal pan. The holes are to be drilled near the bottom of the bucket. Put the 5-gallon bucket inside the metal pan lid side up and use the marker to indicate where you would like to drill the holes. Step 3: Mark where you want to drill the holes Step 2: Drill a hole in the bottom of the bucket and metal pan Marker – to mark where to put the holes.
GOAT PROOF CHICKEN FEEDER DRIVER
Screw driver (this is optional – only if you decide to use a bolt.
¼” drill bit for drilling the bolt hole (depending on the size of your bolt – this is optional). 1 bolt/nut/washer – I used a ¼ inch (any size you prefer – this is optional).1 Gallon Utility Pan – the one I used was a 1-gallon utility pan from Tractor Supply.
