I've done similar things. I use 25lb dog feeders for chicken layer pellets (inside), I have an enclosed outdoor run, and I had a nipple waterer with a pretty big reservoir. And neighbors to check in in the past, although now I have camera systems I can view live, and just ask my neighbor to stop by if something is amiss. Overall it makes it relatively easy to leave as-needed. For me, one neighbor stop is typically going to mean I can be gone a couple of weeks, with likely no issues.
