Plastic feed drum

Plastic feeding drum for feeding wild game on the feeding ground, 60 cm long. 38 cm in diameter, with a 1.9 m long rope and an anchor eye with a capacity for approx. 30 litres of corn

The plastic feeding drum is used for feeding wild game, but especially wild boar. The hopper is built to hold approx. 30 litres of corn, which is protected from birds and rodents, saving food for the game you want to feed. The drum can be secured with an anchor rod and a 1.9 metre anchoring rope. The lid of the drum is screwed onto the body of the drum with a thread and secured with two screws so that animals cannot open it. There is an opening flap in the lid, which is located at the bottom of the funnel-shaped hopper, so you can easily refill the feed into the drum without removing the lid. The drum consists of a drum body, 26 centimetres in diameter, on which the feed drop holes are located, and three outer reinforced cylinders, 38 centimetres in diameter. The outer rollers serve to raise the drum above the ground so that the holes are protected against clogging by mud, which would prevent the feed from being released. The holes on the inner roller of the drum are all around the circumference and are surrounded by brass rings - which makes the hole stronger against breaking out, but mainly protects it from rodents, which do not have access to the food in the drum

The drum is made by centrifugal casting technology from polyethylene - which ensures high strength with sufficient flexibility even at low temperatures. As the drum is a monolith, it has no joints on it that could crack under pressure. The feed drum is produced in green, which fits in with nature and does not draw attention to itself

The principle of feeding is that the game feels the feed in the drum and so begins to roll it over, gradually emptying the feed through the holes and forcing the game to stay longer on the feeding ground to eat. In this way you can keep the animals permanently around the feeding area because the feed is released gradually, the drum is never completely empty, some of the feed always remains in the recesses of the outer rollers - the animals can always feel the presence of the feed.
