If the feed tube is only 2", how do they push in those chicken thighs & legs?

We use a cleaver to chop the partly frozen meat into 1.5 inch strips....takes very little time to do

I haven't done it but it looks like a whole chicken would fit with room to spare but I'm not sure.

I think this would be highly encouraged for smaller sized chickens, but I'm not. sure about bigger chickens. Hope this helped!

Below the tubes, it's rounded out. Just fill up the tubes (you'll have to get them high enough for the kitty to "grab"). We have 6 cats and at least 3 love this feeder. It's great for their brains and slows down the chomping of the dry food :). I really like this model and it's cheaper than buying directly thru Aikiou.

about 10 inches to a foot. You can fit 4-5 pieces of chicken on their easily with vegetables

bottom of the feeder is a straight pole. You could anchor it in concrete or in the soil

Chickens-absolutely. I believe they could also lift a small turkey. The surface area including the prongs measures 8.5cm x 12cm (3 1/3 inches x 4 3/4 inches).

Put the little skinny part in the middle of the clip in between two of the cage bars then just push it onto the wire.

i haven't gotten my older birds or any others to catch on yet and i even know a bit about chicken care, Ventucky Chicken on FB -- i keep trying to present it -- nipples on a bucket bottom hasn't worked yet so i'm looking to try this pipe style as another option.

Put a peanut in the top and they will climb to it. I have two different dwarf hamsters each in their own habitat and they both use the tubes.

I wear 8" lace up boots and put this above it. I have pretty skinny legs and the velcro is just grabbing. Also, you have to roll your pants up very high to get to the mags. So yes, it can be done if you have chicken legs like I do. No, I don't recommend doing it.

There are two plates on the floor separated by a gap, so the chickens would have to touch both plates at the same time and would have to stick their head in over 7 inches to get to the last plate. Is it possible? I don't know. How long is a chickens neck?

No! Okay, maybe a very small, store bought chicken. I bought this to cook home processed chickens after reading only the answer about the turkey. But I can't even fit the legs in without separating thigh and drumstick. Not even close to fitting the chicken whole.

There is a button in the outside toward the top of each leg. Push it and the legs should release.

I do not think you would be able to do that. When cooking a chicken you place the chicken over the tubed center (about 3" tall) of the dish. Inside that "tube" you ad liquid which steams up through the cavity of the chicken. Hope this helps you.

They have to snap inside of the metal frame on the bottom. Push them a little harder.

I would say you would need as much clearance as your chickens are tall, like 16inches or so. In order to get them to drink from the nipples I had to remove their normal water bowl and for the first day jammed one of the nipples up so it dripped a little so the chickens knew that there was water in there. They took to them pretty quickly. Also, if you ever have a different water source like a bird bath, they always seem to prefer it over the nipples because it's easier.
