Lyra

Multipurpose automatic feeder, suitable for different types of free-range poultry such as chickens, laying hens, turkeys, guinea fowl, cockerels and ducks.
The careful study of the different physical characteristics of these animals and the various ways in which they approach food, have led SKA to create the perfect feeder that meets all these requirements and promotes the principles of the European regulations; namely the particular care to ensure the welfare of the animal at all times and in any case.

Technical features

Thanks to the feed-retaining arches of the external grid and the internal regulator ring, feed waste is reduced to a minimum during the brooding phase, as they prevent the chick from scraping around inside the pan and soiling the feed. Furthermore, they educate the adult animal to feed itself by staying outside of the pan. The space created between the grid and the pan allows reusing that part of the feed that the animal does not eat.

The feed level can be easily changed through the conical or straight drop tube of the feeder. Designed with 3 grooves corresponding to 3 feed output levels, which can be selected at any time during the animal’s cycle. These levels ensure easy access to feed at all stages of the animal’s growth.

The centralised lifting winch, which can be manual or motorised, it lifts the line in a single operation, following the growth of the animal until the end of the cycle.

The feed is distributed through a spiral that rotates inside 3 m long galvanised perforated tubes with a thickness of 1 mm. The tubes feature an outlet hole positioned at 100 cm or 75 cm to guarantee the number of feeders necessary for the growth of the chickens, and are designed with internal welding, which keeps the tube cylindrical. This detail does not damage the spiral during its rotation and does not create any external obstacle. An opening at one end of each tube makes it easier to install the next.

Products made of polypropylene, a non-toxic material with UV protection, easy to clean, which ensures a high level of hygiene and has the advantage of an excellent mechanical resistance to wear.

Two pans with different heights, 6.3 cm or 7.5 cm. External collar that increases the feed-retaining capacity in the feeder, suitable for farming ducks for fattening. To be mounted on the two pans from 45 days of age.
