Ideal for chicks 1 - 4 weeks old. 🐥 FEED REMAINS CLEAN AND DRY No-spill lip construction prevents food from spilling on the ground/bedding and keeps debris (dirt, poop, etc.) from entering the feeder. 🐥 NO-WASTE Height of feeding ports allows chicks to reach and access feed at the bottom of the container without being able to move, spill or waste the feed. All the feed gets eaten
🐥 Recommend a maximum of 12 chicks per one dual-port feeder as only two can eat at once.
These small ports fantastic if you have small breeds and a small flock. For my ~36 chicks, I just find myself using the regular quart jar & base feeders until they’re big enough to use the Large dual ports. It wastes feed, but decreases the amount of bullying. I wouldn’t recommend more than 4-6 chicks per dual port at younger ages. Young chicks tend to spend more time eating feed. As they grow, they’ll spend more time doing other things and less time at the feeder - that’s when 1 dual port will work for up to 12 chicks. These are great for bantams or seramas too!

So happy to find these in kit form. I am a breeder and have so many birds to feed! I used a Dremel tool (with cutting wheel) to cut through a very solid Tupperware container. I like using a clear container so I’m never guessing at the food level. The have used the larger feeders but have had chicks climb in too far and get stuck. That’s not possible with these. I filled them according to the instructions and my chicks went right to them. I can’t tell you how amazing it feels to no longer dump 5 lbs of food (literally) out of my brooders when I clean them. No more wasted and contaminated food and healthier chicks- I couldn’t be happier.
