The knowledge of building a chicken feeding line increases the capacity of chicken farmers as they are now able to develop customized feeding solutions. Farmers can select materials and parts according to their requirements such as the size of the flock and type of feed to be used. Constructing the line saves money because farmers do not need to buy a fabricated system. It also allows for adjustments to be made to the line over time. A well constructed feeding line guarantees optimum feed delivery which minimizes wastage and enhances the productivity of the chicken farm.

While building a feeding line for chickens is relatively easy, it does require forethought in terms of how best to execute it given the level of resources available. First, estimate the number of birds and design the feeding line to suit its dimensions and discreet. Test the selected site inside of the chicken house. Purchase the needed materials including feed hoppers, conveyors, and feeding troughs. Construct the parts per the supplied schematic, making sure there is no leakage at the joints. Set the feeding line so that the chickens can easily reach it

common problem

What materials are needed to build a simple chicken feeding line?

For a simple gravity fed chicken feeding line, the components required include a feed bin, made either of plastic or metal, some PVC pipes or troughs that the feed is conveyed through, and some couplings. A stand may be necessary to position the feed bin to the appropriate height.
Start with a layout plan relative to your chicken count and allotted space. Next, put together the feed storage bin, assemble the conveyor device (belt or auger), and set the feeders. Finally, complete and test electrical connections and calibrate the system.

User evaluation of the product

Ruby Davis

In building the chicken feeding line, I encountered some challenges, though I also found it rewarding. The design concept stemmed from a combination of many sources found across the internet including my own ideas. The materials needed were not too hard to find, but putting everything together had some level of difficulty. There was a need to check if the conveyor system was set up and if the feeders were set up at the correct altitude. There was some difficulty in achieving the correct balance from the feeding line but after a few trial runs, everything started working Michegan style. It is a great addition to the farm and I believe with proper research and planning, fulfilling these projects is available to everyone.

Tailored to Your Flock

Tailored to Your Flock

The feeding line can be customized to the needs of the chicken flock. Set the feeder height and length as well as the inter feeder spacings based on the breed and age of the chickens. For instance, younger chicks require low - positioned feeders while bigger, older chickens need more room in the feeding space.
Simplified Installation
