Grandpas Feeders


This hen is having a bad hair/feather day
She is hiding her identity, while she enjoys her meal from the feeder.

Today I'm sharing a wonderful find that we were late in adding to our chicken yard.  In fact, I wish we'd done it years ago.  We like them so well, that we've now added two for our flock!  The savings, in time and money, are something to be talked about for sure!





1. Saves you money-pays for itself in saved feed
2. Say goodbye to pests--no more feeding the local pest colony.
3. Protects feed from adverse weather conditions--
no more feed getting wet and soggy and going to waste.
4. Go away with peace of mind knowing your chickens won't go hungry.
5. Prevents low pecking order chickens from going without their share of food.
6. Comes with a two year satisfaction guarantee.


I'll comment on each of the statements made on the product:


Happy Gaston, Farrah and Pat the Hammer
Well fed and relaxing in the late afternoon shade
I threw out some scratch feed but they aren't interested.


1. Yes oh my yes, it does pay for itself in a short time.  I went back over the feed purchases to see just how much in dollars the feeder has saved us personally.  

We purchased our first feeder last August, 2018, and fed 14 total old chickens and 10 new chicks were added in June. Basically added 10 more beaks to our flock and Our feed purchases were cut over half.

We purchased another feeder in October of 2018.  Our feed purchase records show that we cut our feed costs by  two and a half the amount.  

WOW can you imagine feeding almost twice the amount of chickens for less than half of the cost?

***HUGE SAVINGS***



Alright do you see my boot?
I am trying to entice the hens to eat
You see, they've already eaten all they want
With the feeder they eat when they want and all they want


2. We have no huge animal pests like squirrels etc that get into the pens. Mice have been prevalent in the past and ate their fill from the feeders we've had at the time.  It was a smorgasbord for them, but no longer!  

I have seen no signs of those pesky mice/rats!  

***CONTROLS PESTS***


This hen just won't stay away from the feeder
She does enjoy it!



3.  I can not state the amount of feed saved by this feeder!  Wet, mushy feed of the past is no longer a problem!

***WASTE FROM WET, DAMAGED FROM WEATHER IS A THING OF THE PAST!***
On this topic I will add another statement even the product didn't state:
THIS FEEDER SAVES SO MUCH FROM WASTED FEED DUE TO HENS SCRATCHING AND WASTING ON THE GROUND.


I scattered the feed and kitchen scraps 
Still trying to get them to eat in front of the camera!
They are like children, you know when you say they can do this
They never perform when you want them too!
I did catch this shot thankfully!


4. Yes, we can leave for days and know that the flock is feed and watered.  It gives a great peace of mind.  No worries of them being left hungry and that is due to this product.


Beautiful eggs from the Americanas


Also We don't have to go out morning and evening to feed on a daily basis.  We know they have feed and only go out to collect the beautiful eggs!  I personally am enjoying this freedom!!!

5. Yes, all of the flock are fed and happy!  The strongest to the weakest are fed well!




6.  What a great guarantee 2 years!  We are totally satisfied with the purchases!



Happy hen, and again, I threw the feed out and kitchen scraps to entice them over to feeder for the pictures!  There is virtually no mess with them feeding themselves!
