FEED DISPENSER WITH A WEAR-RESISTANT PECKING AREA FOR FEEDING BIRDS

摘要

Th invention relates to a feed dispenser for birds with a wear-resistant pecking area. This feed dispenser comprises a dispensing pan (2) with a raised mid-section (7), that is surrounded entirely by a base plate (8). This base plate is built up of a plastic base material and a substantially impenetrable contiguous layer (15) of material that is more wear-resistant thant the plastic base material, for example a more wear- resistant plastic or metal. This achieves the advantage that the base plate is protected from perforation by the birds' beaks.
