ABSTRACT:
A feed channel is positioned adjacent a battery of cages particularly adapted for small animals. A metering sled is longitudinally positioned in the channel and moves with reciprocating motion therein. A feed nozzle protrudes into the channel and moves with the sled. Plow members are mounted on opposite ends of the sled for distributing new feed evenly in the channel while older feed is displaced to a section in the channel nearest the cages where it will be consumed first.
