Those chutney barrels are good but they attract ferrets...

Yes, that is my Barbour AND that's my quad-bike too. Tip top!

If you’re feeding pellets

Get an empty bucket cut the bottom out of it and fit a fine (Ish) mesh. The hang so the birds have to peck up to release the pellets. Not only does this reduce waste it helps to reduce boredom/feather plucking etc.

Therese a couple of sites with examples I believe there’s a thread on this on Poultry Garden

Try MT park for suitable containers and then get spirals and fit them. Those AL11/39 plasic containers are handy aftera good rinse out.
