    We have the same feeder, and they can spill large amounts of feed on the floor, I found if I put it on a 2x6 and raise it up a bit, it helps keep feed in the container.

    I feel the feeders in the vid are good for all reasons mentioned, except for spill-out. I bought 2 of them (From a local supplier.) after getting a dozen chicks, and I've found that they end up raking more out of the feeders than what they actually eat. I think these feeders would be MUCH better if the feeder holes were about half the size currently utilized in their design.

    small tip you can also use a flat bowl and a Plastik bottle for the water!
    you just have to make some holes in the bottle under the edge of the bowl then you have to do water into the bottle and close it so no air from the outside can touch the water besides the holes at the bottom of the bottle.

    I'm really not trying to raise them. A mama chick forgot two of her babies.. (She's obviously a bad mom). The other bigger chicks were pecking at the baby chicks. I had no choice but to bring them inside my apartment. There's a lot cats and bad kids that loves hitting the animals with sticks. I shudder to think what they would do to two helpless chirping like crazy baby chicks. I intend on sitting outside and waiting for mama chick to come so I can release her babies. I do wonder if she realize two of her kids are missing?
