Feed-O-Matic Vermin-Resistant Treadle Feeder for chickens 8kg

This vermin-resistant treadle feeder for chickens is an all-weather galvanised and plastic treadle feeder, which cannot be operated by vermin* (they aren't heavy enough to trigger the opening of the feed trough), it also cannot be operated by smaller wild birds so huge feed savings can be made. The innovative pedal feature protects the feed stored in the Feedomatic. This automatic treadle feeder for chickens only releases food when a bird steps on the pedal plate. Because only one bird can use the treadle feeder at a time, it's ideal for those with a small number of birds, or if using along side other feeders.

• The innovative design of the Feed-O-Matic treadle feeder for chickens allows poultry to easily access feed while keeping rats, mice and wild birds from being able to reach the feed trough. A metal door flap covers the feed trough when not in use and quickly opens when a bird steps onto the green front step. The covered feed trough helps minimise feed waste and spoilage while ensuring only your birds are able to access the feed.

• The Feed-O-Matic treadle feeder for chickens features 1mm galvanised sheet metal construction and a durable heavy plastic latching lid. The front step is also constructed of durable heavy duty plastic and is designed to allow water and litter to fall through the grates.

• The Feed-O-Matic will quickly pay for itself by saving you money on feed costs and minimising or eliminating the need to use rat/mouse bait!
   
• Holds 8kg of feed

*Please note that when described as Vermin-Resistant we refer to rats and mice as vermin, not squirrels, who are not (mostly) considered to be vermin.

Plastic elements are not vermin proof so please consider this prior to purchase as a galvanised treadle feeder may be more suitable if you have a significant vermin problem.
