ABSTRACT:
An animal feeder comprises a trough and a hopper located above the trough. The hopper has a bottom discharge opening the size of which is determined by the slideable gate positioned by an adjusting mechanism. Structure is provided to permit animal actuated movement of the gate upwardly and inwardly relative to the discharge opening. A shelf located above the trough and below the hopper discharge opening receives feed from the hopper and holds it there. Structure is provided which prevents the animal from feeding directly from the shelf but permits the animal to sweep feed with its snout from the shelf into a trough.
