12L treadle feeder for poultry
This 12L automatic chicken feeder opens when birds weighing at least 1.8 lbs step on the treadle. Galvanized steel construction resists rust in outdoor conditions. Locks and carabiners secure the lid against predators. A carry handle makes the 13.8 lb unit portable around the farm.
Treadle activation and mesh outlet
The feeder only opens for chickens heavy enough to depress the treadle, so smaller birds or rodents cannot trigger it. A mesh fence across the feed outlet stops wild birds from reaching in and stealing grain. Side plates keep birds from eating at an angle and getting nipped.
12L capacity with weather protection
The 12L hopper holds enough feed to reduce refill trips while the locked lid keeps rain out and feed fresh. It suits flocks that can operate the treadle and need a few days between fills. Very large flocks or mixed-size birds that cannot reach the treadle will need more frequent refills or a different feeder style.

Questions about this item
Does the 12 L hopper suit a small flock or do I need a larger model?
The 12 L hopper holds about 26 lbs of feed, which the maker says is enough for chickens from 1.8 lbs upward and cuts daily refill trips.
What does the 1.8 lb minimum bird weight mean for my bantams?
Birds must weigh at least 1.8 lbs to depress the treadle and open the lid; lighter bantams will not trigger the mechanism.
How does the treadle-and-mesh outlet work in rain and wind?
The galvanized steel body resists rust, the treadle lid keeps feed dry, and the mesh fence at the outlet stops wild birds from stealing grain.
