Small 33 cm Poultry Feeder

Product Overview

The Small 33 cm poultry feeder is the entry member of the covered barrel feeder family, sized for chicks, pullets and small backyard flocks. A 33 cm divided pan base sits under a 28 cm translucent white barrel, topped with a red-orange lid and a small wire carry handle. The compact height keeps the eating slots within comfortable reach of young birds, while the lid keeps dust and moisture off the starter and grower crumbs stored inside.

Each unit weighs 367.4 g and is packed 200 pieces into 1 bag and 2 cases. The 16 cm top opening is small enough to control pouring but large enough for a standard scoop, and the see-through barrel wall lets the keeper watch feed level without disturbing the birds.

Key Features and Benefits

• Chick-friendly 33 cm footprint - the compact pan and low 28 cm barrel suit young beaks and small bodies, with plenty of defined eating slots.
• Translucent white barrel - shows the remaining feed level from a short distance, so starter crumbs are refilled before they run out.
• Fitted orange lid - keeps dust, light rain and pests off fine starter feed, which is the most expensive ration on a young farm.
• Small wire carry handle - makes the light unit easy to lift and move as chicks grow into larger housing.
• 367.4 g light body - small enough for school children and new farmers to handle safely during daily feeding checks.
• 200-piece export packing - 1 bag and 2 cases per carton supports bulk orders for hatcheries and small-flock distributors.

Materials and Quality

The Small feeder is moulded from translucent white plastic with a red-orange lid and divided pan ring, scaled down from the Medium and Large designs. The eating slots around the 33 cm base are proportioned for smaller beaks, and the lid fits snugly over the 16 cm opening. At 367.4 g the wall is light but rigid, and the small handle anchors through the lid area. Each piece is checked for base level, lid fit and outlet flow before it joins the 200-piece carton, with export packaging keeping the compact units clean in transit.

How to Use and Maintain

Place the feeder inside the brooder or grower ring where chicks can reach it without crossing wet areas. Open the lid, pour starter crumbs through the 16 cm opening, and let gravity fill the divided pan slots. Watch the translucent wall and refill when the level drops. To clean, lift by the handle, empty leftover crumbs, wipe the pan slots and barrel with a damp cloth, and air dry with the lid off; avoid heavy scrubbing that could scratch the young-bird slots.

For chick rearing, the small 33 cm unit solves two common brooder problems at once: the lid keeps fine starter crumbs dry, and the divided slots give every chick a defined spot so weaker birds are not crowded away from feed. The 28 cm height means chicks do not have to reach up into a deep pan, which keeps starter intake steady during the critical first weeks. Hatcheries use these units in rows along the brooder wall, where the light 367.4 g body can be lifted out and washed between hatches without straining staff. The translucent wall lets the keeper see at a glance which brooder rings need a refill, which matters when chick work happens on a tight early-morning schedule. Because the Small model starts the covered-feeder family, many customers return later for the Medium and Large sizes as their birds grow, which makes it a natural first order for new poultry farms and school or village training projects.

Applications

This Small 33 cm feeder suits hatchery rear sheds, pullet starter programmes and backyard chick setups, where fine crumbs need protection and low comfortable feeding heights. It is also a popular unit in educational farms and village training projects because it is light, safe and easy to explain.

Distributors stock the Small model as the starting point of the covered feeder family: customers buy one for their first chicks, then step up to the Medium 35 cm and Large 42 cm units as the flock grows. The white-and-orange look photographs cleanly for shop catalogues and online listings.
