An animal feeder designed for use by pigs, having a circular feeding bowl (28) into the centre of which feed is dispensed in response to animal operation. A planar framework above the feeding bowl (28) supports a feed hopper (10) and obstructs the area immediately above the feeding tray to inhibit the rooting out of feed from the tray by the pigs snouts. Growth rates are improved by this competitive feeding arrangement. Alternatively, feedstuff can be supplied by an overhead supply tube. |
