ABSTRACT

An inexpensive and mechanically simple apparatus for feeding cattle and sheep at frequent intervals is described. The devices operate on a rotary turnable principle and utilize feed containers which open and close automatically by gravity. The system is reliable and versatile enough to allow modification for many experimental feeding situations.
