Many growers do not have time to wash plastic feeders, especially in cold weather. This feeder has been designed to match the size and shape of plastic feeders, so they will fit under the feed line just as easily. This feeder is lightweight, easy to handle, made of paper fiber material, pre-formed, no assembly necessary, grid-bottom designed to control feed loss, sanitary, no threat of mold build-up, disposable, no need to wash and santiize after each group of chicks, and can be used with drop tube or conventional hand feeding. The feeders should be taken out of house and disposed of as soon as chicks are eating out of feed line. They also can be left in house and will disintegrate into litter.
