Product Overview

The Plastic Poultry Hopper Feeder is a practical gravity feeding solution for chickens, chicks and other poultry. Feed is stored inside the central hopper and automatically flows into the circular feeding tray as birds consume the ration.

Manufactured from durable PP material, the feeder combines low weight, impact resistance and convenient cleaning. The covered hopper helps protect feed during normal poultry house operation, while the divided feeding grid limits scratching and unnecessary feed loss. It is suitable for poultry farms, breeder units, rearing houses, backyard poultry systems and livestock equipment supply projects.

Key Features
  • Gravity Feed Supply: Feed automatically moves from the hopper into the feeding tray as birds consume it.
  • Durable PP Construction: Flexible poultry-grade plastic provides good resistance to everyday impact and farm handling.
  • Anti-Waste Grid: Divided feeding openings help reduce scratching, feed scattering and unnecessary losses.
  • Protective Lid: The removable top cover provides convenient refilling while helping keep the stored feed clean.
  • Floor or Suspended Installation: The feeder can be positioned on the poultry house floor or suspended according to bird age and management practice.
  • Easy Assembly: Bayonet-style connection between the hopper body and feeding base allows quick installation and disassembly.
  • Easy Cleaning: Smooth plastic components can be separated for routine washing and farm hygiene management.
Structural Components
  • Feed Hopper: Central plastic container that stores the poultry feed.
  • Top Lid: Removable cover with integrated handle for convenient filling and handling.
  • Feed Tray: Circular lower tray where feed becomes accessible to the birds.
  • Anti-Waste Grid: Separates feeding positions and helps prevent birds from scratching feed from the tray.
  • Bayonet Connection: Secures the hopper body to the lower feeding tray.
  • Suspension Point: Allows optional hanging installation when required by poultry management practices.
Working Principle

Dry poultry feed is poured into the central hopper through the top opening. Gravity continuously transfers feed toward the lower tray as birds consume the available ration.

The surrounding feeding grid divides the eating area into individual access sections and helps keep birds from entering the tray or scratching feed outward. No electric motor or automatic control system is required.

Installation & Maintenance

For young chicks, the feeder is normally positioned directly on the floor for easy access. For older poultry, the feeder can remain floor-mounted or be suspended. When suspended, the feeding tray should generally be maintained around the birds' back height to help reduce feed contamination and scratching.

Routine maintenance is simple. Remove residual feed, separate the hopper from the feeding base, wash the plastic components and allow them to dry before refilling. Inspect the feeding grid, bayonet connection and suspension accessories regularly for secure operation.

Product FAQ

Q: How does the plastic poultry hopper feeder supply feed?
A: It uses gravity. As birds consume feed from the lower tray, additional feed automatically moves down from the hopper.

Q: Can the feeder be suspended?
A: Yes. It can be used on the floor or suspended with suitable accessories according to poultry age and farm management requirements.

Q: Is it suitable for chicks?
A: Yes. For young chicks, floor placement is recommended so the feeding tray remains easy to reach.

Q: How does the feeder reduce feed waste?
A: The divided feeding grid limits scratching and helps keep more feed inside the tray.

Q: Can different capacities be supplied?
A: Yes. Capacity, color and packaging can be selected or customized according to order and project requirements.
