The Spiral Spring Feeder is a preferred choice among Gamekeepers for creating DIY pheasant hopper feeders from either plastic or metal barrels. Designed entirely from metal to prevent access by squirrels, it can be easily adapted to fit most drum or barrel types. Installation is straightforward, requiring a 37mm (1½ inch) hole in the base of the container where it can be securely screwed in place.
To set it up, simply cut a hole in your chosen container and attach the spiral spring feeder using three screws. Fill the container with grain or pellets, allowing the feed to filter down into the spring. This mechanism allows birds to peck at the feed as needed, effectively reducing waste and ensuring a steady supply of food.
