ABSTRACT:
An animal feeder includes inclined surfaces (11) engaged along their adjacent edges to form an open vertex (V) at their upper end. The inclined surfaces terminate in bent lower edges (16). A container or bin (6) is secured on the inclined surfaces to receive the open vertex therein. A hopper (30) is secured in the bin and has an opening (31) for discharging animal feed to the inclined surfaces. A feeding trough (5) has a flat surface (17a) secured to the bent lower edges (16) of the inclined surfaces. A side entry (32) provides access to the interior of the bin beneath the hopper (30) when necessary. A closure (33) is provided to close off the entry (32) when necessary.
