3 Things to Look For When Buying a Chicken Feeder
1. High-Quality Materials
Investing in a chicken feeder built with high-quality materials such as galvanized steel and alloy (which makes them much stronger and more durable) is an investment you can make with confidence. Ensuring the feeder you purchase is waterproof and can withstand the elements is extremely important as well. One chicken feeder that has been trusted for over 25 years and made with high-quality materials, and recognized as one of the best quality feeders in the world is the Grandpa’s Feeder, Standard Chicken Feeder (also comes with a 2-year money-back guarantee).
2. Avoid Cheap Knock-offs
We strongly suggest you do some extra digging if you stumble across a chicken feeder that is cheap. Many knock-off brands claim to have the same quality as Grandpa’s Feeders but in reality, have created a cheaper, low-quality replica that can leave you with a product that will have a fraction of a lifespan and could be harmful to your birds. Be sure to read the company reviews, FAQs, and return policies before investing in a cheap, knock-off brand to ensure if you do make the purchase, you can get your money back if they don’t deliver.
3. Exceptional Customer Service/Support
Purchase a feeder from a company that takes care of their customers and cares as much about your bird as you do. Sometimes feeder assembly can be challenging, so working with a company that provides excellent customer support will go a long way in ensuring you set up your feeder correctly, and your birds are safe and happy. Here is an example of a tutorial on how to set up a Grandpa’s Feeder: Watch Here.
At the end of the day, you get what you pay for. Investing in a high-quality product from a company that has been trusted by thousands of customers is the right move in ensuring you are making the best decisions.
What’s the cost of your feeders
Hi Joel,
Thanks for your question. The answer is that it depends on your region/currency. The easiest way to check is to have a look at our product page, which will automatically display prices in the currency/region relevant to you. Here’s the link https://www.grandpasfeeders.com/products/
Thanks!
Absolutely agree, please avoid the $200 “cheap” knock offs with plastic grid pedals. Another thing I love about Grandpas Feeder is metal grid that stops hens flicking grain out (another problem I’ve seen) everywhere. Plus Aussie made! 10/10. Elise, Chicken Coach

We have had one of you feeders at our school for the past four years and it has been amazing. We used to have a lot of trouble with birds and rodents getting into the chook’s feed previously, but after adding one of your feeders the problems completely disappeared, saving our school a lot of money in wasted feed. Occasionally though, the odd sparrow gets caught (and usually killed) in the feeder when the chooks hops of the platform, trapping it. But this happens only very occasionally.
It’s the best thing we did….purchasing one of these feeders. I highly recommend them.
Hi Susan,
Many thanks for your feedback! We’re glad to hear that you’re satisfied overall with your feeder. It’s unfortunate to hear about the sparrows – we’ll ensure this feedback is noted and sent to the team.
Thanks!
