what feeder????

Post by SouthernGuy »

Evening all,

As you will know if you have seen my other two threads, I'm venturing in to chicken keeping :-D

I've been looking into feeders and have narrowed it down to three types. Grandpa's feeder, Trigger happy feeder, and a generic treadle feeder.

I want to be able to leave the food in the run (as rodent safe as possible) and be able to stock it with a couple of days food in case I'm away for an odd night.

From what I've read I really like the sound of the Grandpas feeder but is it worth the £112? >coc<

I have been looking also at the trigger happy chickens feeder. There's a guy on eBay selling the complete feeder with trigger happy fitted for £22.50 delivered. It's a lot more attractive price wise to the grandpa's feeder but is it money well spent?

The other option is a generic treadle feeder, are they any good?.

Please, if you have any experience with any of the mentioned feeders could you take a minute to post their pros and cons to help me?

Many thanks
SouthernGuy
