Automatic feeders
for pig rearing and finishing
Big Dutchman offers dry feeders as well as wet feeders. Both are ideally suited for use in piglet rearing and/or pig finishing. All feeders can dispense pellets, crumbles or meal. Feed can be supplied either manually or by any type of dry feeding system.
The feeders can stand in the pen or be installed into the pen partition. All versions are easy to handle.
