Compared to metal feeders we’ve used in the past, we like the heavy-duty metal construction, quality galvanization and clever adjustment method. Use free standing or by hanging using built-in handle.

Use for feeding the flock, from broilers to layers. Waterfowl friendly too!

Available in 11, 22 and 44 lb capacity.

  • (1) Feed Saver Grill
  • (1) Rain Hat


Benefits

  • Heavy-duty galvanized metal construction
  • Feeds a wide variety of food stuffs: Crumbles, wheat, barley and cracked corn
  • Quickly adjusts between (3) options to control feed output
  • The 22lb and 44lb feeder's legs elevate the unit to prevent bedding build-up in the trough

Accessories (sold separately, colors may vary)

  • Feed Saver Grill reduces wasted feed. Available for the 11, 22 and 44 lb capacity feeders.
  • Anti-Soil Trough Guard protects feed in the trough. Affectionately called the “crap-flap” by Premier’s staff. Fits 22 lb feeder.
  • Rain Hat protects both the hopper and feeding trough from the elements. Available for the 22 lb feeder.


How to Use

To hang, attach a carabiner clip to built-in handle. Or, elevate feeder using bricks or blocks.

To adjust feed output, release one locking clip toward the trough and lower hopper to the desired height. Repeat for each clip. Reverse to raise.

How to attach cone to base:

1. Tilt cone base into two of three locking clips
1. Tilt cone base into two of the locking clips.
Lip of the cone should fit into topmost notch of locking clip.
2. Rotate cone hopper until verticle seam aligns with empty hinge
2. Rotate hopper until verticle seam aligns with empty clip.
Push on base of hopper while pulling on the trough. This counter pressure allows the lip to fit into the third locking clip.
3. Adjust lip to desired height
3. Adjust lip to desired height.
Feed output can be controlled by moving lip to alternate notches in locking clip.


Precautions

Best for layer flocks with small combs.

We DO NOT recommend the use of the Feed Saver Grill with roosters or hens that have large combs. The comb could rub on the plastic and become injured.

To reduce the risk of entrapment, breeds with voracious appetites such as Cornish Cross should NOT use the Feed Saver Grill.

Listed below are recommended optional components or related items. Your particular situation may require alternative recommendations. Please call and talk to our consultants if there are any questions at 800-282-6631.

Galvanized Cone Feeders

Jackson W from Ohio

Food saver grill for the 44 lb feeder was perfect! I have not had to scoop up feed to put back in the feeder since I put it on. No more scratching the feed out into the box! Big time saver!

I purchased this for a different brand of feeder than this Feed Saver Grill was intended. I knew it wouldn’t fit without modification, but it was simpler than trying to devise a DYI feed saver ring. I simply used dikes to clip the inside ring in several places to ease the ring down around the feeder until it fit. It works as intended once I modified it to fit my “off brand” feeder.

Mark P from Georgia

We had issues with chicken feed getting wet and moldy (bad for chickens). I was looking for solutions to the wet feed and found these rain caps, it was exactly like I was imagining as a solution! No more wet feed. The 22 lb feeders also hold a good amount of feed. I like that the feeders are metal also as they’re stronger and more heavy duty than my other feeders which are all plastic. This feeder works great for my backyard chicks, chickens and ducks!

I have sadly had some flimsy, moisture attracting poultry feeders over the years. Never been satisfied, until now.

The Premier 1 galvanized poultry feeders are not your typical feeders. Just a few words to describe... Sturdy, thick steel, with the rain caps, totally moisture resistant, bottom heavy for an absolute stance. There is no way I will purchase any other metal feeder from this day forward.

Susan M from Idaho

Well built feeder, very sturdy. I easily snapped in the adjusters, to set the feed depth. I like the food-saver grill which is preventing the wasting of food. Until my chicks go outside in 2 more weeks, I have the feeder on the floor (on top of two pieces of 2 x 6 boards to keep out shavings). The lid works great to prevent chicks from throwing shavings into the food or from roosting on top. Very happy with my purchase.

About Conductivity

Conductivity measures the amount of electrical current a material can carry. The opposite measure is known as resistance.

Tinned Copper Superconductor

Many of Premier’s electric net fences feature a green and white superconductor that has both stainless steel and tinned copper filaments for optimal conductivity.

These “premium” nets are 10 times more conductive (38 ohms per 1000') than “basic” nets offered by our competitors. This enables the electric pulse to travel much farther and be less affected by weed contact.

Customers who are unhappy with netting are often those who’ve chosen nets from China or their farmstore equivalents.

Types of Line Posts

Line posts are built into the net. Three options are available.*

Line Posts Compared
  1. Single Spike (SS)
    The best choice, unless your soils are always soft or very hard.
  2. Double Spike (DS)
    Posts allow you to push in the spikes with your foot. When soil is hard or rocky, double spikes are more difficult to install and remove.
  3. Drivable Posts (DP)
    Allows use of a mallet or dead blow hammer for installing posts in dry, hard or rocky soil. Features a “spike stop” for extra support and internal fiberglass ribs for added strength.

Tip: To insert a line post into frozen or hard soil, use a power tool to drill pilot holes.

* Not all fences have all line post options.

About Positive/Negative (Pos/Neg) Nets

Is your area dry?

Conventional electrified fence systems rely on soil moisture to be effective. However, not all areas have the required moisture.

Dry soil increases resistance—a weaker, less effective pulse occurs that does not deter animals.

To overcome this, Pos/Neg nets* are wired to allow the use of every other horizontal strand as an extension of the ground terminal. Because half the strands are connected to the ground terminal or ground rod, reliance on soil moisture is reduced. A PowerLink must be purchased separately to make the secondary ground connection.

How it works…

In order to receive a shock, the animal must touch both a positive (hot) and negative (grounded) strand at the same time. This will deliver more pain to the animal than an all hot net (Pos/Pos) because moisture in the soil is not required to complete the circuit.

Pos/Neg fences can be converted to Pos/Pos in moist conditions. Remember, all fences must be kept free of vegetation.

* Not all fences have Pos/Neg options.

Line Post Spacing

“Plus” nets—6'8" spacings between built-in line posts*

Line Post Spacing

Standard nets—10' or 12' spacings between built-in line posts*

* Spacings are approximate.
Distance between built-in line posts may vary by product.

Essential Energizer Advice

  • Buy a larger energizer than necessary. When the fence pleases, most folks will buy more fence—and need additional output.
  • Use a low-impedance intermittent pulse energizer.
  • Use a fence tester to check the voltage often.
  • Use enough ground rod(s)—included with our energizer kits.
  • Don’t allow your lead acid battery to discharge below 40%.
  • Use insulated wire that is designed for electric fences.
  • Always connect the fence to an energizer, not an outlet.
  • Visit this link for answers to other common energizer questions.

Two Basic Types

  1. All-in-one Solar
    • Solar units are very portable.
    • Because they need a battery, these units are more costly to purchase and operate than plug-in units.
    • Batteries are less effective in cold temperatures (deplete faster).
    • Most farmstore solar units are too weak, in joules of output, to properly energize netting. That’s why we designed our own.
  2. Plug-in & Battery
    • Least cost to purchase and operate per joule of output.
    • Best for fences exposed to heavy vegetation.
    • Cold temperatures do not affect performance.
    • Recommended for whole-farm systems, but can be complex to install. Higher output requires more ground rods, underground cables, multiple output terminals, etc.

Dan Morrical joined the Iowa State University staff in 1984 as Extension Sheep Specialist after completing his doctorate degree at New Mexico State University. He held the rank of Full Professor as of July 1, 1995 and retired from full-time teaching in 2017.

While at Iowa State University, Dr. Dan Morrical was responsible for educational programs in all areas of sheep production, ranging from nutrition, genetics, marketing and management. Research areas focused on applied projects in the areas of nutrition, forage utilization, genetics, out-of-season breeding and lamb survival.

Dr. Morrical has been heavily involved in providing educational resources to the sheep industry. He has authored over 30 extension fact sheets, ration balancing software programs, grazing videos and co-authored the nutrition chapter of the SID Handbook with Dr. Margaret Benson from Washington State University.

Dr. Morrical now serves as Premier’s on-staff small ruminant nutritionist and sheep production advisor. Most recently, he’s introduced a line of “GOLD FORMULA” mineral premixes under The Shepherd’s Choice® brand, aimed to maximize hoof health and immunity.

Braided vs. Twisted

Braiding instead of twisting the horizontals increases the frequency of metal filaments on the outside of the strand.

Braided vs. Twisted Electric Net Fences

What’s the benefit?

  1. More metal is exposed on the outside of the strand. This enables improved animal to conductor contact. The electric pulse is better able to travel from the fence and into the animal, resulting in a memorable shock.
  2. A tighter, braided weave results in fewer snags when carried or pulled through pastures, reducing frustration.
