Description of the BasisFeeder
For economic optimal and physiologically correct free-choice mineral supplementation of grazing cattle and sheep
BasisFeeder protects expensive mineral supplements from rainwater and dung etc. by help of a rubber cover, which the animals push up with their heads when they eat. The sloping outer walls ensure, together with a comfortable height that animals neither tips it around nor steps on it. Easy to move and inexpensive to transport. Falls discreetly into the landscape.
The special triangular form, reuleaux triangular inspired, with round corners makes the dimensions of the feeder small in comparison to its huge capacity of 74 litres volume - dependent on the density of the mineral feed supplements, for instance equal to a capacity about 120 kg - despite small dimensions, makes it cheap to transport, and is one of the reasons for a cheap price in comparison to other feeders.
A reuleaux triangle is a special geometrical form, and as visulaised here, the form provides for a higher volume than a circular form that shall fit into the same square.
Other information and facts
The top is a strong and reinforced rubber sheet, which the animals push up with their heads when they eat.
Has a total volume of 74 litres, including three compartments of each 19 litres, which provides the opportunity to use it for different mineral types at once. Can for instance be used for both granulated minerals, buckets with molassed minerals, fodder salt and lick stones. The three compartments are perfect as protection and fixation of mineral buckets with diameters of up to 30 cm (bottom). The molassed minerals maintain in this way an appetizing moist surface.
