Rat proof feeders

Post by Leabaker »

I have a problem with rats as the coop is at the side of a dry stone wall. Do rat proof feeders work and if so can anyone recommend a brand?

It looks as if people were too busy recovering from the Bank Holiday to answer your query.
I know some use treadle feeders, but I don't know much about them.

The treadle feeders look good but have not tried them. Thankfully no problem with rats. Just the pheasant couple who think I put the chicken food out just for them!
