Stop Feeding Rats And Wild Birds And Keep Every Gram Of Feed For Your Flock With The BeakTox Chicken Feeder
Tired Of Wasting Expensive Feed On Rats, Sparrows, Squirrels, And Other Pests That Help Themselves Every Day?
Stop funding an open buffet for every pest on your property. The BeakTox Chicken Feeder uses a weight-activated treadle mechanism that opens the lid only when a chicken or duck steps onto the platform, and closes it automatically the moment the bird steps away, keeping every rat, mouse, sparrow, squirrel, and stray animal completely locked out of your flock's feed supply around the clock without any electricity, batteries, or timers required.
Looking For A Chicken Feeder That Keeps Feed Dry, Fresh, And Mold-Free Through Rain, Snow, And All Weather Conditions?
Protect your feed investment through every season without intervention. The BeakTox Chicken Feeder features a weatherproof rust-resistant metal construction with a powder-coated paint-protected surface and a SUS304 stainless steel hinge that seals the feed trough closed between feeding sessions, keeping rain, moisture, wind, and debris completely out of the trough so your feed stays dry, clean, and mold-free through summer heat, winter cold, and everything in between.
Worried About Constantly Refilling Your Feeder And Spending Time On Daily Feeding Chores?
Let your chickens feed themselves on their own schedule without your involvement. The BeakTox Chicken Feeder holds 5 kilograms or 11 pounds of feed in its generous trough, providing enough capacity to feed up to four adult chickens continuously for multiple days between refills, with the self-closing treadle mechanism preventing all spills and waste so every gram of feed loaded into the trough reaches your flock rather than the ground or local wildlife.

- Weight-Activated Automatic Treadle Mechanism
- Pest-Proof Lid Locks Out Rats And Wild Birds
- 5kg Feed Capacity For Multi-Day Feeding
- Weatherproof Rust-Resistant Metal Construction
WEIGHT-ACTIVATED AUTOMATIC TREADLE OPERATION
The ingenious mechanical treadle design requires a chicken or duck to step onto the anti-slip platform to trigger the lid to open, and closes it automatically the moment the bird steps away, operating entirely without batteries, electricity, or programming while providing genuinely reliable pest exclusion that works continuously day and night without any maintenance or adjustment needed.
COMPLETE PEST EXCLUSION SYSTEM
Rats and mice are too light to trigger the treadle threshold, squirrels cannot operate the mechanism, sparrows and wild birds cannot perch or trip the platform, and bats have no access to sealed grain at night, with the sealed lid simultaneously eliminating the feed spills and scattered grain that attract rodents to the coop area and compound the pest problem over time.
5KG MULTI-DAY FEED CAPACITY
The 48.5 centimetre internal trough holds 5 kilograms or 11 pounds of feed with sufficient capacity to provide continuous self-service feeding for up to four adult chickens for multiple days between refills, eliminating the daily feeding chore and giving your flock 24-hour access to feed on their own natural schedule without requiring your presence at specific feeding times.
WEATHERPROOF SEALED LID DESIGN
The rain-resistant lid seals the feed trough completely between feeding sessions to keep moisture, rain, wind-blown debris, and dirt from contaminating the feed supply, maintaining dry and mold-free storage conditions through wet weather and seasonal temperature extremes while the SUS304 stainless steel hinge ensures smooth, quiet, and long-lasting lid action throughout years of daily use.
RUST-RESISTANT PAINT-PROTECTED METAL CONSTRUCTION
High-quality metal construction with a powder-coated paint-protected surface that resists rust, corrosion, flaking, and chipping through extended outdoor exposure across all seasons, delivering approximately double the service life of standard hanging or open-bowl feeders and providing long-term structural integrity and clean appearance throughout the full working lifespan of the feeder.
ANTI-SLIP PATTERNED STEP PLATFORM
The patterned anti-slip step platform measures 50 by 12 centimetres and provides confident, secure footing for chickens and ducks across all weather conditions including wet, muddy, and frosty surfaces, ensuring your birds can reliably trigger the treadle mechanism without slipping or hesitating and establishing the consistent feeding behavior that keeps the self-service system functioning smoothly every day.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will rats and mice be able to trigger the treadle and access the feed?
No. The treadle mechanism is calibrated to the body weight of adult chickens and ducks, making it too heavy for rats, mice, and small animals to depress sufficiently to open the lid. The sealed lid also prevents any access to feed from above or the sides for any animal that cannot operate the treadle from the step platform directly.
Do I need electricity or batteries to operate the BeakTox feeder?
No. The BeakTox operates entirely on a mechanical treadle principle with no batteries, electricity, timers, or programming of any kind required. The weight of the bird stepping on the platform directly lifts the lid through a simple lever mechanism, and the lid returns to the closed position automatically under its own weight when the platform is released.
How much feed does it hold and how often does it need refilling?
The internal trough holds 5 kilograms or 11 pounds of feed at a time, providing sufficient capacity for up to four adult chickens for multiple days between refills depending on flock size and individual consumption rates. The sealed lid prevents all spillage and waste so the full loaded capacity is available to your flock rather than being lost to spills or pests.
Can ducks use the BeakTox feeder as well as chickens?
Yes. The treadle mechanism and trough dimensions are suitable for ducks and other backyard poultry of similar size to standard adult chickens, with the 50 by 12 centimetre anti-slip step platform providing sufficient space for ducks to stand comfortably and trigger the mechanism with their body weight during normal feeding behaviour.
Is it difficult to assemble and how long does it take?
The BeakTox comes with all required hardware including screws, bolts, and nuts, and assembles using basic Phillips and hex tools following the included instructions. The straightforward component design with clearly labelled parts allows most users to complete assembly in a reasonable time without specialist tools or prior experience with poultry equipment.
Does the feed stay dry inside during rain?
Yes. The weatherproof lid design seals the trough closed between feeding sessions to prevent rain and moisture from entering the feed storage area, maintaining dry conditions for the feed even through prolonged wet weather, while the rust-resistant paint-protected metal construction ensures the lid and body maintain their weatherproof integrity across multiple seasons of outdoor use.
What types of feed can be stored and dispensed from the BeakTox?
The generous trough dimensions accommodate a wide range of standard poultry feeds including corn kernels, rice grain, pellets, mixed grain blends, and chopped vegetable scraps, covering the full variety of feed types typically used in backyard chicken and duck keeping without requiring any modification or additional accessories for different feed formats.
What are the overall dimensions of the feeder?
The lid measures 51 by 20 centimetres, the internal feed trough is 48.5 centimetres long and 10 centimetres deep, the overall body height is 19 centimetres, and the step platform is 50 by 12 centimetres, providing a low-profile, stable footprint that fits naturally into most coop layouts and covered outdoor feeding areas without obstructing chicken movement or access to other equipment.
