We are using 5 gallon buckets for our feeder and water, however the chickens love to roost on them. You can buy a 5 gallon anti-roost topper, but they are about $25 which is crazy. I designed this to use very little material. 

 

Print with the following settings 

  • 4 Walls
  • 3 bottom layers
  • 0 infill

I printed mine from PLA+ at 0.25 layer height. 

Once you're done printing, just secure it to the top of the 5 gallon bucket lid, I opted for duck tape, but will likely figure out a better method. I lightly sanded mine to make sure it was smooth to ensure that they couldn't get a good grip on it.
