I had two of them & not one chicken (standard or bantam) would use them ~ later only if we left the treadle open continually would any bird use them but that defeated the ratproof feature! No amount of suggested training would work.Those are the Al Gerhart rat proof feeders like Chicory and I have.
I am very happy with my two.
Only one chicken ever used the following smaller treadle feeder but none of the others would eat out of it! They preferred starving
