Description
xThe PAULOZYN Automatic Chicken Feeder is a heavy-duty, rat-resistant galvanized treadle feeder that holds up to 15 pounds of dry feed and dispenses only when poultry step on the pedal.
Built from rust-resistant galvanized steel and treated with a durable spray finish, this treadle-style poultry feeder keeps feed dry, reduces waste, and prevents rodents and wild birds from stealing food. Its deeper trough and widened opening let multiple birds eat at once, while the treadle mechanism only releases feed when chickens apply weight—helping you conserve feed and cut daily refill chores.
How does the treadle design reduce feed waste and pests?
The weighted pedal controls when feed drops into the tray, so only animals standing on the treadle can access food. The weatherproof lid and raised lip stop rain, debris, and pilfering by wild birds or rats.
- Sealed cover shields feed from moisture and dirt
- Treadle-only release prevents free access from non-target animals
- Galvanized steel resists gnawing and rust
What capacity and dimensions should I expect for a mixed flock?
This model holds roughly 15 pounds of dry feed and features an expanded feeding opening for larger birds. The long 21" pedal and 21" wide opening let several birds feed simultaneously, reducing flock competition.
- Approximate capacity: 15 pounds of dry feed
- Feeding opening: 21 inches long by 7 inches wide
- Long pedal accommodates roosters and larger breeds
Is the feeder durable and safe for repeated outdoor use?
Yes—panels are made of galvanized steel with a protective spray finish for extra longevity and corrosion resistance. Edges are curled to reduce sharpness, and the non-slip diamond tread helps birds stand securely while feeding.
- 1 mm steel thickness enhanced for durability
- Edge curling minimizes sharp edges and installation risks
- Diamond-pattern pedal surface prevents slipping
How simple is installation and everyday maintenance?
Installation is straightforward: secure the feeder without overtightening link bolts so the treadle moves freely. Routine care is limited to refilling, occasional cleaning, and checking fasteners to ensure smooth operation.
- Do not overtighten linkage screws; allow free movement
- Chickens need roughly 1.1 pounds or more to activate treadle
- Easy to refill and wipe clean for seasonal upkeep
Who is this for: PAULOZYN's Automatic Chicken Feeder is ideal for backyard keepers, small-scale poultry farmers, and anyone who wants to limit feed loss to pests while cutting daily feeding chores. It's especially useful if you need a low-maintenance, weather-resistant feeder that accommodates larger breeds and multiple birds at once.
