Wasting the Feed

The chicks are wasting their feed!  Those stinkers are scratching their food out. So here's what I did.  I set their feeder on top of their carboard feeder, so if they did scratch it out it would go into their other feeder to be eaten. 
 

 

 
It's an inch tall from the ground to the food.  So it takes some figuring out to do.
Some ate normal, but some were standing in the feeder.  The chick above was doing a balancing act trying to stand in the feeder.
 
These two chicks seem to be hugging the chick to the left.

Today is a breezy day, so it's not a cook stove in the chick's coop.  I still think those little buggers are going to scrap the feed out.  You never know what those little legs can do!
