This feeder will help keep vermin such as crows and pigeons at bay while allowing poultry easy access to their feed.
 
This new design with a durable plastic lid and treadle ensures a nice quiet action and better weather proofing.
 
There are extensive possibilities to set the weight for guaranteeing the access to the trough. The minimum weight to that can be set is 250g, up to a maximum weight of 2Kg. For animals with a body weight of 500g, for example,  the treadle weight should be set to 250g and for animals with a body weight of 5Kg this value should be 2Kg
 
To teach your hens to use this feeder, simply place a heavy object on the treadle and leave for a few days until hens are used to getting their feed, then remove the object and as soon as they step onto the treadle the food becomes immediately available.
 
They are designed to be used with layers pellets, mash is too fine and can spill out of the feeder.
