ELI Metal Poultry Feeder with Handle 9kg (3000125) – Galvanised Chicken Feeder

Galvanised 9kg Poultry Feeder with Handle

The ELI Metal Poultry Feeder is a heavy-duty galvanised feeder that holds up to 9kg of feed for your flock. Made from tough galvanised metal, it stands up well to weather and daily use, and the 9kg capacity is a good mid-to-large size that keeps plenty of feed up to the birds with less frequent refilling. With a strong handle and a ribbed anti-waste base, it is a solid, long-lasting feeder for medium and larger backyard flocks.

A Good Capacity for Bigger Flocks

At 9kg, this feeder sits between the smaller and largest sizes in the range, holding a decent supply of feed so you are not topping up as often. That makes it well suited to medium and larger flocks, or anyone who would rather fill the feeder less frequently while keeping feed available to the birds throughout the day.

Ribbed Base Reduces Feed Waste

The ribbed base pan is designed to cut down on wasted feed. The ribs help stop chooks flicking and scratching feed out of the pan as they eat, which is one of the main ways feed gets lost. Rather than a smooth-sided pan that lets birds scratch feed out, this design keeps more of it in the pan where it belongs, which adds up to real savings with a bigger flock.

Strong Handle and Durable Build

The strong handle makes the feeder easy to carry when full and lets you hang it up in the coop or run, keeping the feed up off the ground where it stays cleaner and there is less spillage. The lid helps keep feed protected, and being galvanised, the feeder is corrosion-resistant and hard-wearing, built to last season after season.

How to Use

Fill the feeder with your poultry feed and refit the lid. Stand it on a flat, level surface or hang it by the handle at around the birds' back height, so feed flows into the base pan as they eat. Position it in a sheltered spot to help keep the feed dry, and check the level regularly, topping up as needed. Empty and clean the feeder from time to time, and keep it dry when stored to protect the galvanised finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much feed does it hold?
It holds up to 9kg of feed, a good mid-to-large capacity that means less frequent refilling for medium and larger flocks.

What is it made from?
It is made from heavy-duty galvanised metal, which is corrosion-resistant and hard-wearing for long-lasting outdoor use.

How does the ribbed base help?
The ribs in the base pan help stop birds flicking and scratching feed out as they eat, which reduces feed waste compared with a smooth-sided feeder.

How do I choose the right size feeder?
Match the capacity to your flock: smaller feeders suit a few birds, while the 9kg and larger sizes suit medium and larger flocks that get through more feed and benefit from less frequent refilling.
