How It Works
The door opens in the morning, your flock feeds through the day, and it closes again after dark.
-
Opens at Dawn
The automatic door opens in the morning so feed is ready when your chickens are.
-
Feeds Through the Day
Your flock accesses the enclosed feeding tray whenever it needs to during daylight.
-
Closes at Dusk
Feed is secured after dark, helping reduce the easy overnight food source for pests.
More Freedom. Less Waste. Fewer Pests.
-
More Freedom
Spend less time manually opening and closing feed access every morning and evening.
-
Less Wasted Feed
The enclosed feeding area helps reduce scratching, spillage and unnecessary feed loss.
-
Fewer Pests
Closing after dark helps remove the easy overnight food source that attracts pests.
Designed Around Your Flock's Daily Routine
Your chickens feed normally throughout the day while the enclosed tray helps keep their food contained and protected.
Fill It Less. Enjoy Your Flock More.
The large hopper holds up to 20 kg of feed, reducing how often you need to refill.
Secure Feed After Dark
When the feeder closes at dusk, the food source is no longer openly available overnight — helping discourage rats, mice and other unwanted visitors.
