The Chicken Caravan Treadle feeder is designed to help keep rodents out of your chicken feed. The tread that the chickens step on opens the gate on the feeder to allow the chickens to eat the food stored inside. The feeder holds 14kg of chicken food and can feed up to 15 chickens. There are 3 adjustments to suit chickens of different weights. There is a catch to lock the feeder gate open for training. The feeder is designed to be resistant to light rain. Note: there might be small blemishes on the treadle feeder - these will not affect the performance of the feeder.
