10kg Treadle Poultry Feeder
Save money with this 10kg Poultry Treadle Feeder - no more feeding the wildlife!
Made in the UK using a heavier construction than many imported versions, the feed can only be accessed when the chicken is stood on the tread. This opens the feeder so the hen can reach the food.
These are designed to be used outside all year round and prove to be very effective. It may not be suitable for bantams since they are not heavy enough to tip the treadle. Capaity: 10kg.
Your birds may need some training to use their new feeder. We suggest that you hold the treadle down with a weight for the first few days until the birds become accustomed to where they can find their food. After this they should be able to use the feeder without any problem.
This feeder requires some basic assembly. Occasionaly, if a rodent problem has existed for some time, the rodents may be large enough to operate the treadle when several are stood on it at one time. We suggest that our treadle feeder is used with other methods of rat control to prevent this.
