Broiler Trough Feeders
High capacity trough-style feeders specifically designed for raising meat birds.
Broilers have two simple jobs: Eat and grow. Unrestricted access and high capacity are necessary for an all-day buffet. However, too much access may result in soiled feed from birds climbing into the feeder, or perching above the food.
Premier’s trough feeders offer two solutions:
- Feed-saving lip has a knurled edge to help prevent birds from spilling feed onto the ground
- Freely spinning carrying reel to prevent perching above the food
Use for broilers, ducks, turkeys and any type of poultry that you’re growing for the plate.
Instructions/Diagrams:
Benefits

- Wide base slopes to a narrow feed opening (5–5.5") offers plenty of capacity while discouraging climbing
- Feeds 15–30 birds at one time (3" space per bird)
- Portable—trough feeders can be carried using full-length carrying reel which freely spins to reduce perching
- Durable construction; 304 grade stainless steel or rugged, UV-treated plastic

I love this feeder. I have used it for two seasons. No waste and the birds can’t perch on it. The plastic makes it very easy to clean. Although, I would like to see it offered in a 6ft length. The 4ft length is a little short for 30 Cornish Cross in the last few weeks.

This feeder seems solid and looks to be super durable. The body is made of very thick corrugated plastic. The spinner bar is plastic with a steel bar inside. Some have said the squared shape is hard on the hands but I’ve found it easy if you use your fingertips in the concave sidewall instead of wrapping your fingers all the way around it. The only knock this product could have is the very thin plastic on the end walls. I mean, the thing is so solid otherwise, why not beef that up? Seems silly not to. But as it is this should last at least three seasons. At that point I will cut some plywood ends for it.

Feeder troughs are great. High quality, durable, and hold a ton of food.

I wanted to love this and maybe it will grow on me. I think it would have been better with a round handle. The square one hurts with all the weight of the food. The space seems off. Not big enough to easily get food in, too big to keep 5 week old broilers out. Seems to be good quality just not sure it works for how we intended to use it.
