• It is going to save you a lot of money on feed costs.  This feeder is rat proof chicken feeder, a rodent proof chicken feeder, a wild bird proof chicken feeder, and a squirrel proof chicken feeder.   Many customers report a 50% savings in feed consumption. 
• This is the only automatic chicken  treadle feeder on the market with an adjustable spring loaded door and a distant narrow treadle that makes it impossible for a rat, wild bird, or squirrel to steal the feed. The spring loaded door prevents rats, wild birds, or squirrels from just pushing the door open, a defect found on most of the competing feeders out there, and the distant treadle means that only full size chicken would be able to reach the feed so even if a dozen rats overwhelmed the treadle counterweight the second they rush forward to eat, the door will close to keep them out.
• The feed is going to stay much cleaner without rats and wild birds walking in the feed.  Chickens can’t get in to walk on the feed  and the covered door prevents litter from being thrown into the feeder when the hens are scratching in the litter.
• Your flock will be healthier once the vermin stop eating out of the treadle feeder and bringing their diseases and parasites along with them.  Commercial flocks know this and they go to great lengths to keep vermin out of their flocks.  Those flocks use open poultry feeders but they conduct a constant war against vermin using dangerous and toxic professional poisons.
• The medium treadle feeder will feed a single hen around 100 days or ten hens for 10 days.   You can go on vacation and not worry about the birds running out of feed.
• And all those nasty rats and wild birds will go elsewhere for their free meal.
• We have several shipping methods to keep the shipping costs reasonable as well, Multi Pack and Slow Boat shipping programs, rates as low as $9.00 to $15.00 per feeder.

But don’t take our word for it.   Take a look at this blog post that a customer put up in June of 2016:
