How it Works
The Osborne Pivot Feeder maximizes sow feed intake without waste. Revolutionary and economical, the Osborne Pivot Feeder is designed to save money from the start by easily retro-fitting it to existing bowls. Further savings can easily be achieved because animal interaction occurs at the bowl–not at the feeder. Virtually all flex auger feed tubes fit into the hopper and the lever can be custom fit to match the height of the feed bowl in the head gate.
As the sow moves the lever of the feeder to one side of the bowl, a small cup inside the hopper is filled with feed. When the lever is moved to the opposite side, feed is dispensed into the bowl. Because of each lever’s design, sows must eat feed in the bowl before they are allowed to dispense more, preventing feed from accumulating in the bowl and increasing feed savings.
