Fast broiler feeder

Good day to all.

In this article, we will consider how the author assembled a broiler feeder, in a quick way, from what was at hand. First of all, the author decided on the size of the future feeding trough, based on the size of the chicken coop where the master has a bird.

The master is 700 mm.

Further from an old piece of casing.

He measured the length he needed and made a mark with a pencil.

In order to cut the pipe exactly, the master wrapped it in a regular newspaper, and combined the edges of the newspaper.

Outlined with a pencil on the edge of the newspaper.

And cut off the markup using angle grinder.

Next, I cleaned the edge of the cut.

After he took the level (Any flat object will do.)

And he made markings for the holes, based on the size of the heads of birds that had grown in the future.


Further, I went a little along the marking of the angle grinder.


And then cut through.

The molten edges were cut by a conventional hacksaw on a tree.

And again he cleaned the edges.

Like this.

Next, the author took the paint and a couple of sheets of paper.

And put paint on the edge of the pipe.

Then he leaned that edge of the pipe against a sheet of paper.

A similar procedure, he did with the second edge of the pipe. The result was stub patterns.

After removed the remaining paint from the pipe.

Then cut out the patterns.

And taking a piece of the board.

Moved the templates to the board.

Then cut out.


Both blank blanks.

Further, these blanks are fitted under the pipe.


And set them in their place.




Like this.


Further, the author made legs for the feeder from pieces of laminate.

And fixed them to the plugs with screws.



Here's a feeding trough for him.

And in the end, the author deleted from the finished homemade residues of dust and chips.

The capacity of such a feeder is 6.5 liters of compound feed.

Installing a chicken feeder.

Bird inspecting a new feeder a bit.

Approved her.

That’s all for me. Thank you all and see you soon!

I made a feeding trough from an old gutter. At the ends made wooden plugs. And also the rake was raked. Then I drilled two holes in the plugs and extended two 8-wire wires to the entire length of the feeder. Now do not rake.
I’ve kept a dozen chickens at the summer cottage. Exclusively for eggs. And last year, after the construction of the chicken coop, I decided to make a feeder. Having seen enough of all sorts of different homemade feeding troughs on the Internet, I decided to stop on like the one described in the article. In theory, everything is super! But in practice ... Chicken, as it turned out, is still cattle! They love to dig everything with their paws with their three-fingered! And as one would expect - all the feed from such a feeder very quickly appeared on the ground. To make holes so much smaller that the chicken couldn’t pull anything out of the feeder with its paws - there is a risk that the head will get stuck, and in general it may not want to bite. I tried using a rope to divide the long holes in the feeder into cells, and they torn the rope. In short, I threw this feeder away and bought a factory one, which, of course, as an amateur, I don’t do any honor.
