The invention is an apparatus for the controlled feeding of animals in a cage. A cover-mounted rack is adapted to be supported on the side walls of the cage. The cover-mounted rack includes a horizontal portion and a well portion with a fodder access part therein. A base plate is mounted on the aforesaid horizontal portion and has means defining a first axis. A tiltable frame member is pivotably associated with the base member for movement from a first position to a second position about the first axis. A fodder container means having means therein for the passage of fodder therethrough operably associated with said tiltable frame member. In the first position, the fodder container means for the passage of fodder therethrough, cooperates with the well access port wherein the fodder is presented to the animal for feeding. In the second position, the fodder container means is removed from the well and access by the animal to the food is prevented.
