ABSTRACT:
A feeder for pig-raising which can discharge a fixed quantity of food in a good condition at all time, which can adjust a discharge quantity of food relatively simply, and which can feed efficiently at all time in consideration of a habit of pigs. A suspension rod is suspended within a feeding tank formed at a lower end with a food outlet, and a food-quantity adjusting member is disposed below the suspension rod. The food-quantity adjusting member comprises a conical portion having an upper end smaller in diameter than the food outlet of said feeding tank, being gradually enlarged in diameter downward, and a lower end slightly larger in diameter than the food outlet, and a disk-like portion secured to the lower end of said conical portion. Food is supplied to a bottom plate from a gap between the food outlet of the feeding tank and an inclined peripheral surface of the food-quantity adjusting member.
