'Hats' for feeders
« on: November 04, 2009, 10:26 »
Can anyone recommend where to get the covers for the green and white feeders or/and a galvanised feeder that would keep the weather off the food please?
Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted!!

Hi I got my large feeder from solway feeders (recommended by grannie annie  :D) this came with a indoor cover and a rain hat. They do sell spares but not sure if they would fit yours.
Staffies are softer than you think.

have a look at flowerpots last posting he has a lid available but again don't know if it would fit yours.
To fill mine I just have to lift off the lid pour in and then plonk the lid back on - simplez  :D

Sorry to go on about them (haven't got shares or anything) but, as everything, I got mine from flytesofancy:

http://www.flytesofancy.co.uk/chickenhouses/Super_Poultry_Feeder_Hopper.html

It's at the bottom of this page - costs £4.51.

I bought a 3kg feeder,  went back to order a lid only to be told it was nearly £5  :ohmy:

Was in Wyevale (garden centre) one day and picked up a brown plant pot saucer for less than a quid,    drilled a hole in centre at no cost  :)   job done

BBTM - now you've made me feel like I am all decadent and crazy for buying the £5 lid...

I'm getting a right telling off today!  :(

But have to agree about BBTM's resourcefulness - it would never occur to me to do something so simple to solve the problem.  I just have to throw money at it (to Hubby's disgust)
