Appletons Premier Step On Feeder 9kg

Stop feeding the sparrows, rats and mice and keep your chickens feed clean 😊

• Ideal if you have 4 or more hens or only top up your feeder weekly.
• Perfect if you have a small flock and enjoy going away for an occasional weekend as the chooks will have access to feed 24/7.
• Hens are foragers and do best eating little and often throughout the day so feed on demand works best.
• Ideal for busy working people that are not always home early in the morning and late afternoon to feed their hens.

Step on feeders reduce hierarchy in flocks ensuring all birds get enough feed which results in happy hens and better egg production. Step on feeders keep out rats, mice and sparrows ensuring your poultry feed is not contaminated. Clean feed helps to reduce the worm burden. Auto feeders save time and in the long run, less feed is wasted so save money!

Suitable for all commercial hybrids (brown shavers and hylines), heavy breeds and most larger light breeds of poultry plus guinea fowl and ducks. This unit only takes 900 grams to open and holds app. 9 kgs of feed. The body unit is made out of heavy polyethelene (like the wheelie bins) with stainless steel hinges, nuts and bolts so it keeps working in adverse weather. Quality product made here in NZ. This feeder works efficiently both indoors and out but does need to be placed on a level surface.  All our step on feeders include our very own Appletons training instructions which are clear and easy to follow.
