it’s not so much other commitments as required space, the more bowls I add the smaller each bowl gets unless I add to their size vertically.Obviously you've got who knows what commitments besides chicken-tending and you'll need a system that works for you, but this seems to put the cart before the horse. I'd decide on the nutrition you want to provide and then figure out how to deliver it. Letting the delivery system determine the nutrition is what feed manufacturers have to do, and is what leads to most of the problems they encounter and then have to add things to solve.
If I had more space I’d probably be fermenting everything and have standard bowls big enough for a days supply of each thing but with 30 small enough bowls to fit in the available space I’m worried a quail could take out a favourite ingredient quicker than I can replace it causing competition.
It’s all speculation so things I consider potential issues now may turn out not to be, eggs rested and going into the incubator this morning, very excited.
