Weight Activated Chicken Feeder, 5 Kilogram Capacity, Rodent Proof | compagnien
Feed up to four adult chickens for several days on a single fill, thanks to a 5 kg capacity that minimizes daily refills while keeping feed within reach for your flock.
The feeding action relies on a weight-activated treadle that only unlocks when a bird steps onto the platform. There are no power needs, batteries, or timers—your chickens trigger the release, then the lid seals again as they depart.
The design includes a weatherproof sealed lid that keeps feed dry through rain, snow, moisture, wind, and debris, while also sealing the trough between sessions to curb mould and spoilage.
Durable construction uses rust‑resistant metal with a protective powder coating, and the hinge is made from SUS304 stainless steel to ensure smooth, quiet lid operation and long life.
An anti‑slip patterned step platform (50 x 12 cm) gives secure footing on wet, muddy, or frosty surfaces. The trough measures 48.5 cm long and 10 cm deep, the lid is 51 x 20 cm, and the overall height stands at 19 cm.
Suitable for chickens, ducks, and other poultry of a similar size, with a multi‑day capacity for up to four adult birds.
