A poultry floor feeding system is provided which includes a feeder line, a hopper boot, a feed hopper, a mounting collar, and a securing member. The feeder line conveys feed to feeders located at spaced locations thereon. The hopper boot is located on the feeder line. The feed hopper supplies feed to the feeder line and has a body portion which terminates in a discharge port at a lower end thereof. The mounting collar is operatively associated with the discharge port of the feed hopper for connecting the feed hopper to the hopper boot on the feeder line. The securing member releasably secures the mounting collar to the feed hopper such that the feed hopper can be easily removed from and replaced onto the feeder line for cleaning or repair.
