Easy Fill Feeder | Stand-Up Coop

Custom Made to Match Your Coop

A note about gravity-style feeders…

Our new EZ-Fill Feeder² is improved and will easily hold a long weekends worth of food. Gravity feeders are a class of feeders that, as the name implies, rely on gravity to dispense feed. Chickens eat, and more falls down. ANY gravity feeder can clog, although our new EZ-Fill Feeders² fight this tendency.

In high humidity areas, with certain feeds, during certain seasons of the year, our feeders can clog too. If a feeder did clog, shaking the feeder will almost all the time dislodge the food. Feed absorbs moisture. Some feeds contain anti-clumping agents to keep them from absorbing moisture during manufacturing and those feeds do best.

Many times, more expensive organic feeds do not have anti-clumping agents in them, and are in fact, more susceptible to clogging. Experiment with different feeds that are available in your area to discover what’s best. But you will no doubt, sooner or later, need to shake tap, or poke at the feed to dislodge it.

Customers report feed stored in original paper feed bags clogs less. At least with our Easy-Fill Feeders, you’re doing it from outside the coop 🙂
