Quill Feed Bin Kit

The Quill Feed Bin Kit converts a 45 gallon metal drum into a weatherproof feeder with a high capacity (150kg) for low maintenance feeding.

• Unique feed tray allows birds to feed from a clean surface
• Large lipped top hat provides protection from birds of prey and keeps feed dry
• Available with 45 Gallon metal drum
• Available in Green, Black & Eco-flec
• Suitable for pellets, grain, cracked or whole maize
• Robust protection against badgers, deer or vermin
• Suitable for pheasants, duck, partridge and poultry
• Holds up to 6 bags of feed

Instructions for use:

1) Take a clean, empty 45 gallon metal drum and cut horizontal slits approximately 7" long about 2 1/2-3" up from the base, at approximately 3" intervals around the whole circumference of the drum.

2) Above the slits tap in the sides of the bin to create a letter box type feeder. Tap in approximately 1" if you are feeding pellets/ maize etc and as far as possible if you are feeding mash.

3) The tray can be placed on the floor or on a suitable object e.g. old tyre, concrete blocks or logs. Place the drum on top of the tray and use a cone or upside-down bucket in the centre to dispel food to the outside.

4) The top hat now fits on the drum creating a weatherproof and hygienic feeder.

Top tips:

• If blocks or logs are used under the tray, a tunnel can then be sited underneath in the artificial tunnel that has been created.
• If deer are a problem, then the skirt of the top-hat can be drilled and pegged to the floor.
