ABSTRACT:
A roughage feeder unit for cattle or livestock comprises an upright gate assembly mounted on supports at opposite ends of the assembly and provided with ground engaging wheels and skids to support the gate assembly for movement over the ground. The unit includes a device coupled to the gate assembly for anchoring the gate assembly to the ground and adapted to restrict the gate assembly to movement over a predetermined distance relative to the ground. A preferred embodiment of the anchoring device comprises a telescoping brace adapted to be secured to the ground by a stake and provided with a stop to limit the movement of the gate assembly relative to the stake.
