NEW PRODUCT! The manufacturers of Feedomatic Treadle Feeders have designed an add-on metal plate for the feed trough of their popular Treadle Poultry Feeders.

Select your Treadle Feeder Size (5kg, 8kg, or 12kg) from the drop-down box above.

The Rat Guard is a metal protector plate for Feedomatic Treadle Feeders to prevent cunning and determined Rats (and Squirrels) from chewing the plastic feed troughs. It fits under and to the front of the feed trough, and is screwed in place.

See the images above of the Metal Rat Guard and how it fixes to the Treadle Feeders. The shaped metal plate comes with screws and instructions for fitting. Easy to fit with just two screws.

The guard fit fine and does the job as described.Does anyone know why the birds pull a lot of feed out which ends up on the floor

Hello Tom. Thank you for your review, glad to hear the guard works. I know occasionally some birds can flick their feed out of the trough. If they are 'flicky' birds the only thing we can suggest is placing some large hole mesh over the trough to 'retrain' them not to flick. The other reason they often do this is if you mix their layers pellets with other, more tasty, tidbits and in their efforts to find these, they flick their pellets out. Hope that helps.

Rat guards that work for squirrels too

While these guards are titled for the skinny tailed ground rat, they work very well for the bushy tailed grey tree version too.
Our squirrels showed considerable inventiveness with all sorts of feeders but the rat guard does stop them demolishing the feed trough.
It's easy to fit as an after-market addition too.
