The present disclosure provides a bird feeder preventing food from being stolen, the bird feeder includes an upper cover, a food storage pipe and a bottom cover, where the food storage pipe is provided with a food storage cavity, and the upper cover is connected to a pendant; feeding ports communicating with the food storage cavity are provided around a circumferential side of the bottom cover; and the bottom cover, at the feeding ports, may be rotationally connected to trays. Correspondingly to the feeding ports, the bottom cover is inwards and concavely provided with leak-proof portions, each leak-proof portion is provided with a first backstop surface extending vertically, an upper edge of the first backstop surface is externally extended with a second backstop surface, and one end, away from each first backstop surface, of each second backstop surface, is connected to each feeding port. A gap is kept between a lower part of each first backstop surface and each feeding port. Thus, by designing the bird feeder and disposing the leak-proof portions at the feeding ports of the bird feeder, birdseed may be prevented from falling outside the food storage cavity of the bird feeder from the feeding ports. Then the trays may be rotationally connected so that birds can stand stably for eating food while effectively preventing squirrels from stealing the food.

A protector device includes a plurality of pairs of multi-pronged elements. Each pair of multi-pronged elements includes a first multi-pronged element having a first C-shaped element that has a first straight section, a first end forming a first end spike, and a second end forming a second end spike, and a first connecting element attached to and perpendicular to the first C-shaped element. Each pair of multi-pronged elements also includes a second multi-pronged element including a second C-shaped element connected to the first connecting element of the first multi-pronged element, the second C-shape element having a second straight section, a third end forming a third end spike, and a fourth end forming a fourth end spike, and a second connecting element attached to and perpendicular to the second C-shaped element.

A high throughput process for delivering a semi-firm gel for supplying vaccines, nutritive substances and other similar material to animals, such as poultry chicks. The material is delivered in a non-absorbent semi-firm gel that is easily consumable which results in higher material uptake. The semi-firm gel is formed by interactions occurring between a solution containing an alginic acid crosslinking agent with a gel containing alginic acid.

An apparatus for delivering digestible products to hatchling fowl includes a controller and a metered delivery mechanism, the metered delivery mechanism electrically coupled to the controller and configured to deliver a pre-defined quantity of digestible products to the container. The digestible product includes an edible and digestible semisolid material.

A bird feeder includes a container and a lid. The container includes a body and a neck. The neck includes an opening and the outer surface of the neck includes a first thread. The lid is configured to engage the neck. The lid includes a top wall and a side wall bounding a peripheral edge of the top wall. An inner surface of the side wall includes a second thread that is configured to engage the first thread of the neck so as to close the lid onto the container. The top wall includes an opening and a perch is disposed on the lid. An attachment member is formed on an outer surface of the lid.

A poultry feeder with double directional of rotation is provided that balances the weight of the feeders in the feeding tube, reduces colocation time and rework. The poultry feeder with double directional of rotation can be placed in a resting or washing position in both directions without interfering with the anti-perching cable and can be completely internally washed without being disassembled. The hopper and the plate are rigidly coupled and do not uncouple during pressure washing and the central cone of the plate has elevations at the ends to allow a better distribution of the food. The curved tongue prevents the accumulation of food by leaving a minimum space between it and the tube.

A fodder machine. The fodder machine includes one or more beds. The one or more beds are vertical relative to one another and each of one or more beds is offset to every other bed in both horizontal directions. Each of one or more beds is tilted approximately two degrees from horizontal. The fodder machine also includes one or more belts, where the one or more belts are configured to be a surface for the growth of fodder.
