ELI Plastic Poultry Feeder 5kg
The ELI Plastic Poultry Feeder is a practical 5kg chook feeder suitable for bantams, standard chickens and larger backyard poultry. It holds a useful quantity of dry feed, reducing the need to continually refill smaller feeding dishes.
Made from UV plastic, the feeder can be suspended from a suitable chain at feeding height or placed securely on the floor. Raising it above ground level helps reduce the amount of dirt, litter and debris scratched into the feeding section.
Hanging or Floor Placement
The feeder offers two setup options to suit different coops and poultry runs.
When suspended, adjust the chain so the feeding tray sits at a comfortable height for the birds. This can help keep the feed cleaner and reduce chickens stepping into or scratching bedding through the tray.
When used on the floor, place it on a clean, stable and level surface where it cannot easily tip.

Avoid placing it close to frequently used roosts
