RentACoop 25lb Gravity-Fed Metal Trough Feeder — Galvanized Weatherproof with Rain Cover & Visible Window

RentACoop's 25lb gravity-fed metal trough feeder is a weatherproof, low-maintenance poultry feeder that holds 25 pounds of dry feed and includes a removable rain cover and secure lid.

This heavy-duty galvanized trough feeder is designed for backyard flocks and small farms that need a reliable, pest-resistant way to dispense pellets, crumbles, or scratch grain. Built with corrosion-resistant sheet metal and stainless steel fasteners, the unit stands up to sun, rain, and snow while delivering feed automatically by gravity. The visible side window, adjustable interior grate, and easy-clean design help reduce waste and cut the time you spend refilling and maintaining feeders.

How does the gravity-fed system simplify daily feeding?

The gravity-fed design supplies a steady flow of feed into the trough as birds eat, so you refill less often and avoid spills from overfilling. It works with most dry feed types but is not intended for chicks or mash.

• Holds up to 25 lb of dry feed for fewer refills.
• Automatic dispensing reduces manual scooping.
• Interior grate controls access and minimizes waste.
• Suitable for pellets, crumbles, and scratch grains (not for wet mash).

Will this feeder keep feed dry and pests away?

The removable rain hood and magnetic lid protect the feed from rain and most moisture when mounted outdoors or placed inside a coop. The galvanized finish and smooth interior surface make it harder for rodents and insects to hide or contaminate feed.

• Removable rain cover prevents water from entering the trough.
• Magnetic lid stays in place to deter birds and small animals from scattering feed.
• Weatherproof galvanized metal resists rust and degradation.
• Design reduces exposed feed, lowering attraction for pests.

How easy is it to check, clean, and adjust for different birds?

A built-in side window gives a quick visual on remaining feed so you know when to top up. The interior grate unclips and folds out of the way for thorough cleaning or to allow larger birds easier access.

• See feed levels at a glance with the side view window.
• Removable grate clips up for fast cleaning and maintenance.
• Smooth galvanized interior wipes clean and resists buildup.
• Grate can be adjusted or removed to accommodate ducks, turkeys, and larger poultry.

How do I mount or place this feeder for best results?

The feeder ships with mounting screws and can be secured to a coop wall or placed on a flat surface inside or outside the housing area. Its compact trough profile fits into tighter spaces while still holding 25 pounds of feed.

• Includes mounting hardware and two waterproof stickers for placement guidance.
• Can be hung or set on a ledge—flexible positioning to suit coop layouts.
• Compact footprint is useful for both run and coop installations.
• Also available in 10lb and 50lb sizes for different flock needs.
