"FEEDR FOR ANIMALS" A feeder for animals particularly pigs includes a trough having a front wall, a base and a rear wall. A shelf is positioned over the rear wall so as to project forwardly from the rear wall. A hopper deposits feed onto the shelf so that the animal can eat from the shelf or brush the feed into the trough. The shelf is separate from the rear wall so that it can be raised and lowered relative to the rear wall leaving a space underneath the shelf and at the top of the rear wall. The trough can then be cleaned by injection of a liquid spray which cleans out the crevices of the trough and jets the material up the rear wall and under the shelf to be discharged through the floor. The feeder can therefore be easily cleaned while it remains in a stationary position in the pen. |
