The new model of feeder for sheep is more practical than its predecessor and has a solid construction, with the feeder bars manufactured from piping with dimensions of 20 x 1.5 mm. The feeder is suitable for sheep and lambs, and therefore has angled feeder bars that prevent the sheep entering the feeder. The entire feeder is galvanised.
The feeder is circular, with a diameter of 1.7 metres, and therefore has plenty of space for whole bales. You simply put the bale on the ground and then lower the feeder over the bale. The feeder bars on the feeder have a feed opening of 21.5 cm, ideal for both sheep and lambs. The total height is 92 cm, 28.5 cm of which is the base.
Thanks to its design, with several mountable components, you can easily replace wear and spare parts. This gives your feeder a longer service life, and means that you do not need to buy a new feeder as often.
The plastic elements at the top of the feeder make it safer for the animals, and also make the feeder more resistant to wear caused by the weather.
By using a feeder, you reduce the amount of trampled feed and unnecessary waste, which means that you save on both feed and feed expenses. A feeder also improves hygiene around the feed, and thus reduces the risk of contamination.
The feeder is supplied unassembled. It consists of 4 sections (2 packages) and requires customer assembly. The feeder consists of more components than its predecessor, because certain wear parts are now replaceable to enable a longer service life.
NOTE! Any plastic film/netting around the hay bale must be removed before use.
Supplied unassembled.
Why is it a good idea to use a feeder?
• You reduce wastage as the animals do not trample around in rejected roughage.
• You improve the hygiene of the feeding area by minimising the risk of contamination.
• It takes less time to tidy the feeding area and you need to throw less roughage onto the manure heap.
Please consider your livestock and their needs when choosing a feeder. Always follow your country´s agricultural rules and animal welfare regulations.
