A plurality of feed pan assemblies are attached beneath a feed trough connected to a supply hopper, the trough having an internal conveyor for moving feed therealong. Each assembly includes a container suspended intermediate the trough and pan which are pre-filled with feed dispensed from the trough. The bottom of each container is closed by a gate during filling of the container, the gates being simultaneously opened by an actuator which provides simultaneously premeasured dispensing of feed into the desired number of feeder pans. Preferably, the gate is cone-shaped.
