Osborne's big wheel pig feeders, designed for nursery and finishing, have been setting industry benchmarks for over three decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistinguished by their original round-trough design, these feeders provide animals with increased eating space, fostering a feeding environment that encourages consumption. Arranged in a 360° spoke-like configuration, the feeders allow more pigs to access the trough simultaneously, avoiding the congestion typical of shoulder-to-shoulder positioning in traditional rectangular or straight-line feeders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe innovative mechanical flow design of these feeders ensures a continuous supply of fresh feed and halts feeding when not required. This on-demand system prevents feed from lingering untouched in the trough, minimizing the risk of being kicked out or deteriorating in the feeder, especially in wet conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo further enhance hygiene, the feeder bar features paddle sweeps that clean the trough bottom as pigs turn the wheel to request food.

Its signature \u003cstrong\u003emechanical feed flow\u003c\/strong\u003e system only dispenses feed when pigs rotate the wheel, preventing overfilled troughs and cutting down on waste. Unlike traditional gravity-fed feeders, you won’t have to constantly adjust as your pigs grow. The feed comes out only as your pigs need it, keeping your operation more efficient and cost-effective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEasy for Pigs to Learn\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroducing pigs to the Big Wheel is simple. Start by filling the trough manually, and they quickly discover that moving the wheel releases more feed. In no time, your pigs are naturally interacting with the feeder, feeding themselves efficiently without constant supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDurable for Outdoor Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Big Wheel Feeder works well outdoors, even in rain or snow. Its mechanical-flow design prevents moisture from causing clogs, and the feed wheel’s self-cleaning action keeps feed flowing smoothly. For pens with fewer pigs, small drainage holes in the trough can help reduce water buildup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRound Trough Design for Less Competition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike rectangular feeders that force pigs into close quarters, the \u003cstrong\u003eround trough design\u003c\/strong\u003e spreads pigs evenly around the feeder, providing more space to eat and reducing competition.
