<p>A two sided feeder for feeding animals while the animals grow from a first smaller size to a second larger size comprises a trough (10) having two opposed outwardly inclined front walls (12, 13) over which the animals can reach for taking feed from the trough and a feed hopper for discharging feed downwardly into the trough (10). The height of each front wall is adjustable by a hinged or removable supplementary portion (23) to accommodate the different size animals. A shelf is provided above the trough onto which the feed is deposited. The height of the shelf is also adjustable. The hopper includes two vertical side walls defining a lower neck each having a lowermost edge adjacent the shelf for controlling deposit of material onto the shelf so that it remains on the shelf unless moved to the trough by the animal. The neck is supplemented by a clamped insert portion when the shelf is moved to its lower height.</p> |
