If your panels are not fitting…
If the feeder panels appear too long to fit correctly into your feeder, it may be that your feeder is not square or slightly less than eight feet long.To fix this problem you can overlap the panels in the center as shown in the photo.

I have built one feeder so far. I wasn't sure about it at first but I am now very impressed. The feed waste has been almost eliminated. Better get some help moving them. Wow! They're sturdy!

I have built 3 of the feeders for outside use and they work great. The only modification I made was to install a flip-up top that helps to keep rain, snow, etc. off the hay. Small lambs will eat the leftovers and after two years there have been no incidents (lamb mishaps). The finished product is heavy and I use a small tractor with a bucket in order to move the feeders.
