    Excellent pig feeder! Would you happen to have the drawings for it that you could share?

      Thank you! So I don't have a drawing for it, I just sketched it out on the plywood. Rough dimensions are 24 inches wide about 18" deep at the feed lid, 12" deep at the upper section, and about 48' tall.

      Thanks, it took just another small piece. If you down sized it just a little it would fit on one

      It's rubber window/door flashing, I don't know what brand it was.

      I ended up just getting an old inner tube and cutting it to fit. Then I used contact cement to glue it on.

    What was the material used for water proofing?

    • @Grazing-M-Acres
      @Grazing-M-Acres  Рік тому

      It a rubber window flashing used for new construction on houses, it has a sticky tar back so when it heats up it stickto whatever you put it on. You can find it at hardware stors or big box stores near the roofing supply, I forget the name brand of it but they make a bunch of didn't kinds.

    Are they raking the feed out on the ground?

    • @Grazing-M-Acres
      @Grazing-M-Acres  Рік тому +1

      Sometimes they will rake a little out when they are both eating at the same time. I would say only about 1% - 2% gets wasted. And the feed I'm feeding is real fine almost like a powder.

      @Grazing-M-Acres  3 місяці тому

      I replaced the feeding lid just cause it started looking bad, they would chew and scratch on the corners. Thats all that ive done to it so far. if I were to wash it, it would look brand new.
