The poultry fountain and feeding station is a mechanical structure. The poultry fountain and feeding station provides food and water used to feed poultry. The poultry fountain and feeding station comprises a food reservoir, a water reservoir, a control circuit, and a pedestal. The food reservoir, the water reservoir, and the control circuit mount on the pedestal. The pedestal elevates the food reservoir, the water reservoir, and the control circuit above a supporting surface. The food reservoir provides food for the poultry. The water reservoir provides water to the poultry. The control circuit controls access to the food contained in the food reservoir. The control circuit controls the temperature of the water in the water reservoir. The control circuit illuminates the space around the poultry fountain and feeding station.

A plastic member for a feeding system for poultry production is provided. The plastic member includes an outer surface and may be configured for attracting pullets to a specific area. The plastic member may be adapted for application in a feeding system and/or a drinking system. The plastic member may include shining particles configured with reflective characteristic of reflecting incident light in one or more directions. Also provided is a use of the plastic member in nutrition systems and elements herefore.

A bird feeder with detachable decorative and camouflage features is disclosed. The bird feeder includes a base supporting a housing configured to contain bird feed. In one embodiment, the base includes feeding posts having an annular groove for receiving a synthetic flower and elastic ring to provide a detachable decorative feature. In other embodiments, the bird feeder includes a foliage support having a plurality of foliage receptacles. The foliage receptacles have a serrated inner surface for receiving and retaining the stem of detachable foliage.

A device keeps ants out of a feeder for flying creatures, such as hummingbirds. The feeder is adapted to be held above the ground by a supporting member. The device may include an annular vessel, fillable by a fluid, such as water. The annular vessel can surround the supporting member, below the feeder, for instance on the ground. The feeder may thus be disposed to be visible from a window or above a wall, while the annular vessel is below a sill of the window or the top of the wall. The annular vessel is designed to be passed over the supporting member, when the feeder is not attached.
