Feeder

[Shepicca]

Has anyone seen a feeder like this for sale?
A fellow contacted me about peafowl for sale and in the picture he had this feeder. He said it was an industrial feeder and was willing to sell me one if I bought his trio
Thanks

I get big white mineral buckets with locking lids from my local feed mill. They are wide, like 2 ft by like 18" tall. I cut big holes in them so they can stick their heads in but not climb in, flip it over or poo in it. plus it was like $10. I would be afraid they would have more fun swinging those around..... hehe

You can see one of the feeders in the back ground.... it holds 5 gallons with the holes at that height.

We use metal 30 pound size hanging feeders

I have seen feeders like that here and there but I don't know where they got them from.

I also use them as free range feeders for my chickens and ducks, swan etc... I can vary the different hole heights and widths to make it easier or harder for different birds to get in.
