10 kg Poultry Feeder with Legs

Product Overview

The 10 kg red poultry feeder with legs is the heavy-duty elevated unit in this feeder series, built for commercial flocks where one station must serve many adult birds. A tall red barrel stores up to 10 kg of pellets or mash and releases feed by gravity into a wide 40 cm ring pan, while four raised legs lift the trough 8 cm off the floor. The all-red finish keeps the whole unit easy to inspect, and the large footprint gives multiple birds their own eating positions at every mealtime.

The barrel section stands 35 cm tall, the top opening measures 22 cm, and the complete feeder weighs 640 g, the heaviest unit in the gravity bucket range because of its reinforced leg frame and deep walls. Packing is 100 pieces in 2 pieces per pack, a count tuned to the unit size so cartons stay safe to handle and stack during container loading.

Key Features and Benefits

• 10 kg top capacity - the largest hopper in the range, cutting refill rounds on commercial layer and broiler farms to a minimum.
• 40 cm wide feeding pan - the extra-large ring circle lets many adult birds feed at once, reducing queue pressure and feather pecking at the trough.
• 8 cm raised leg frame - keeps the ration above litter and droppings for cleaner feed and better flock health.
• 22 cm wide filling top - a broad opening makes fast refill with a scoop or feeding trolley practical in large houses.
• 640 g reinforced body - thicker walls and stronger leg joints carry a full 10 kg load season after season without sagging.
• 100-piece export pack - the adjusted carton count suits the bigger unit and keeps forklift and manual handling safe.

Materials and Quality

The 10 kg feeder is moulded from red plastic with heavier wall sections than the floor bucket models, because a full hopper exerts real pressure on the base and leg joints. The four legs are fixed symmetrically to the 40 cm pan ring, and the barrel tapers smoothly to guide pellets down to the outlet. At 640 g the unit feels solid rather than bulky. Before export, each piece is checked for level legs, pan roundness and a free feed outlet, and cartons are packed with protective dividers so the leg frame survives ocean freight without bending.

How to Use and Maintain

Plan feeding rows around the 40 cm footprint, leaving clear lanes so staff can pass with feed trolleys. Set the unit on flat ground, fill through the 22 cm opening, and let the pan fill by gravity without overloading the trough. During the flock cycle, check leg stability weekly and clear the pan edges of caked feed. At turnaround, empty the barrel, hose the whole unit, scrub around the leg joints where dust collects, and leave it standing upright to dry before the next batch moves in.

The 10 kg leg feeder is typically used as the adult-stage station on farms that work up the size ladder from the 4 kg floor bucket, through the 6 kg and 8 kg units, so the whole house stays on one familiar bucket design family. Because each station serves many birds at once, fewer units are needed per square metre, which leaves more floor space for birds to move and less equipment to clean at turnaround. The reinforced 640 g body also means the unit survives the heavier handling that commercial houses demand, where staff move dozens of units quickly with trolleys rather than carrying them one by one. Farms running several barns often standardise on this top size for the adult layer house, then order the same red leg model as replacement stock year after year.

Applications

This elevated 10 kg feeder suits commercial layer houses, grow-out broiler farms and large duck or goose yards that need fewer, bigger stations instead of many small buckets. It is the natural upgrade when a flock has outgrown the 6 kg and 8 kg leg units and daily refill rounds are starting to crowd the workday.

Exporters and project suppliers also specify this size for government and cooperative farms, where a small number of robust stations must cover hundreds of birds. The all-red, heavy-duty look matches expectations of commercial equipment and photographs well in tender catalogues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How many birds can the 10 kg leg feeder serve?

It is used as one large station per group of adult birds, with exact numbers depending on breed and house layout; our sales team can suggest station density for your barn plan.

Q2: How does it differ from the 6 kg leg feeder?

The 10 kg model carries a deeper 35 cm barrel, a 40 cm pan instead of 33 cm, a 22 cm top and a 640 g reinforced build, built for adult commercial flocks rather than growers.

Q3: Are the legs detachable?

The unit ships as a fitted leg-mounted feeder; the legs form part of the rigid base frame, so there are no loose parts to assemble or lose on the farm.

Q4: What is the export packing arrangement?

It is packed 100 pieces in 2 pieces per pack, and we can combine it with smaller feeders and drinkers in one container to optimise your shipment cost.
