The
General Duty Rancher Feeder is designed for optimum feed efficiency in
cow/calf operations, offering 18 feeding stations measuring 14 1/4" wide x
38 1/4" high.Waste is
minimized around the feeder as the feeder, without legs, sits directly on
the ground allowing for an eating height of 20". Inverted neck bars allow
the animals to reach to the center of the feeder so that all feed is
accessible to them. The top ring of the feeder is designed to funnel 6' x 6'
round bales into the feeder without causing damage. It does accommodate
those bales that are not perfectly round because the inside diameter is 7'6"
and the outside diameter is 9'6".
As with all HiQual products the
297 pound feeder is durable and stands up to pressure. The Hi-tensile round
tubing is 1 1/2" x 16 gauge material while the 18" high sheeting is 16
gauge. Overall height is 60".
If you are looking to minimize
feed waste and lower the cost per head, this is the feeder for you.
