120 cm Semi Round Poultry Feed Trough

Product Overview

The 120 cm semi-round poultry feed trough is the largest covered feeder in the long trough series, designed for commercial layer houses, breeder farms and large grow-out operations. Its arched semi-circular cage runs 120 cm along the feeding line, is about 27 cm wide and stands around 21 cm high. The curved top grid wraps over the tray, giving birds access from the front through evenly shaped openings while stopping them from stepping into the feed.

The semi-round shape means there are no sharp corners where feed residue can hide, and the arched frame spreads the birds along a longer feeding rail. This unit is the flagship size for farms that want one long feeder to serve a big pen, reducing the number of refill stops and the number of units to clean each flock cycle.

Key Features and Benefits

• 120 cm feeding rail - the longest tray in the series feeds a large group from one unit, minimizing gaps in the feeding line.
• Semi-round arched grid - curved cage bars cover the tray, blocking access from above while leaving front openings for feeding.
• No-corner easy clean shape - the rounded inner bowl rinses end to end with no trapped residue corners.
• Stable wide base - the 27 cm width gives a solid footprint that resists tipping in crowded pens.
• Commercial-scale design - sized for layer houses and breeder farms rather than small backyard use.
• Consistent red finish - uniform red color matches the rest of the equipment range for neat, identifiable house setup.

Materials and Quality

The trough is molded in a rigid one-piece body where the arched cage bars fuse into the long tray rim. This continuous structure keeps the long 120 cm rail from sagging when filled, and the smooth plastic surface resists scratching. The opening edges are rounded so birds feeding head-down do not rub their combs raw. We inspect sampled units from each production run for length, bar spacing and surface finish before they are packed for export.

The arched bars blend smoothly into the long tray rim, leaving no protrusions that could snag cleaning brushes or collect dried mash. The 27 cm width gives the tray a low center of gravity, so even when large birds press against the frame it stays planted. Because the inner bowl has no corners, rinse water runs clear after one pass, which matters on commercial houses where cleaning labor is a cost line.

How to Use and Maintain

Stand the trough on a flat, clean section of the pen floor or along a service aisle where birds gather. Fill with pellets or mash to a moderate depth, keeping feed below the bottom edge of the front openings. Refill morning and evening, and tip out any damp leftovers before adding fresh feed. At flock turnaround, hose or brush the curved tray with mild detergent, rinse and leave to dry standing on end. Store spare troughs nested or stacked in a dry room out of direct sun.

When lining up several 120 cm rails, leave a small gap between units so a brush can reach the ends of each tray during cleaning rounds.

Applications

Commercial layer houses use the 120 cm semi-round trough as a long floor feeder where birds eat along both sides of the rail. Breeder farms choose it because the arched grid lets keepers observe birds easily while preventing feed waste during controlled feeding programs.

Distributors serving large farms stock this size as the flagship feeder in their catalog, pairing it with the shorter semi-round 68 cm and 95 cm models so customers can choose exactly the length their pens need. It is also used on free-range units that want covered feeding points near the pop-hole.

Farms planning a new shed layout can send us a rough pen sketch, and our team will suggest how many 120 cm rails fit the feeding aisle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Is the 120 cm version too large for a small flock?

It is designed for commercial pens. For small flocks, we recommend the 68 cm or 95 cm semi-round models, which cover the same design at shorter lengths.

Q2: Can birds feed from both sides?

The covered arched grid limits access to the open front side, which is deliberate: it keeps birds from standing on the feed. Place the open side along the service aisle.

Q3: Does the arched top keep rodents out?

The covered design reduces feed exposure at night compared with open troughs, which helps reduce rodent attraction in commercial houses.

Q4: How is it packed for shipping?

Packing follows our standard export carton program. Tell us your order quantity and we will send carton dimensions, piece counts and loading options for your container.
