Now that's better than any TV show!
Thanks

...your last porch time is one of the best vids ive seen on you tube....thx.....mike miller.....
Thanks Mike
Great idea for a feeder, Danny. For my chickens, I use plastic, 2 liter, soda pop bottles to make feeders. Us country folk use what we have or can get cheaply. Blessings to you and Wanda.
Thanks Sibyl
Having raised them before, there's nothing cuter than baby pigs. What's also fun is putting a soccer ball sized ball in a round galvanized water tub and watch them hit it back and forth. Pigs are great entertainment.
Pigs are so much fun.Thanks
Those little pigs were so funny. Thanks Danny & Wanda for the video
Thanks JRC
That's a nice feeder. It started out as a little piggy playhouse. Take another one of those barrels and make a piggy autowaterer. Thank you for the video.
oh my goodness they are just the cutest little things.... i could sit and rewatch this video over and over.... Great job on the feeder.
Thanks Linda
I just knew that the little piggies would go inside. How funny! They'll soon be big enough that they won't be able to fit their whole bodies in the opening. Please update us on the success of your design as they grow up.
Them little bacon bits are just too cute and so hilarious to watch. I really like that pig feeder design, Mr Danny. God Bless! 🙏👍
Thanks Friends
I love this feeder idea. I will have to sow it to my husband as we are planning to get pigs soon. It was fun to watch the piglets eat and play.
Thanks Alicia
They are so funny! Just loved it. Loved that you had a chicken running around waiting for ground control duty after the piggies leave.
Thanks
I guess you and Wanda don't need to bring any more entertainment to the farm! You already have plenty right there! I laughed my butt off!
We have plenty Cheriette.Thanks
I was laughing with you Wanda. They are hilarious. I love that you can fill their food bin without even stepping in the pen. Good job.
Great idea for a feeder...thanks for sharing!!
Thanks
You put a lot of thought into that. I like the water-proof aspect of it.
Thanks Pine
Three words for you Danny...United States Patent. Go for it!!! Brilliant innovation sir.
Thanks Bryan
Great idea for a feeder. Thanks for the video
Thanks Dalton
Hysterical! Loved it. But... they won't be little pigs long. Pigs grow fast, they will be tossin' that barrel around like a toy in a few months and wearing it like a hat! I have to say, you are quite talented, was so impressed with your idea and execution! Very nice work!!
They will only be using it for a week or so till they are free ranged.I have this as a weening stall from momma.Thanks
First, LOVE THIS! So clever! Second, I knew at least one would try to climb in there, but what I didn't know was what happened next. OMGosh! Hysterical how they would freak out and coming barreling out! Great video!
It was funny Thanks
Ikr especially that one that just stood there stunned after they ran out. It was like 'what the heck just happened..' or something. LOL
Perhaps one of Danny's books should be on feeders. I notice they are all over Danny when he's close; I bet if he'd let them they would crawl up in his lap!
Yes they would.Thanks
Thanks, started my day off with a big smile.
Thanks Doc
I sure do love the practical uses for stuff I have around the farm. I can't afford to buy expensive feeders and I have a bunch of these drums.
This is one of the best video ,love those piggies !
Thanks Pamela
Very creative! Love watching you two work together also! Just like me and my hubby. Side by side, through it all. :-)
Thanks
lol fun watching them slip in and out of that thing. Tell you put some thought into it. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Eric
loved this! I was laughing with Wanda :-) Great idea & finished product, Danny.
Thanks Orphanlady
Thanks for the piggy video, love it. 🎈
Thanks Critter
That is an awesome build and they are adorable!!
very cool diy and funny ending.great job again Danny
Brilliant. And you made it look so pigin easy. Nice job
This is hilarious! Wish we were there! Maybe this will warm my Danny to piggies!! I had just commented Wanda is about to give one of them her boot(gently of course) and you did! We fell out laughing!! Danny, you put in a lot of time and effort into these piggies. I wish PETA could see how much they are loved! Love y'all!! L
I didn't kick at the piggies! I was moving dirt that he threw at my feet. Piggies just run when I moved. LOL I knew it would look like that. But it was just dirt I was kicking at.
+Deep South Homestead Wanda, don't you make me come over there....kickin those babies...smh. I hate knowing that I have those same barrels in my shop just sitting there waiting for a ride to Wiggins! - Dan Loved this vid btw... 👍
My husband doesnt know I have two pigs!😬
Pigs are curious little critters, just had to get in the feeder, lol.
Thanks Sandy
This is a great idea!! Thanks for sharing
You are 'the' man Danny..Innovative and precise. Thanks for sharing..
Thanks Erick
Mr. Danny you always come up with great ideas on how to do things. Love seeing those little rascals, so funny. Thanks for sharing...:-)
Thanks Pamercy
That's what I needed this morning. To cute
Thanks Ronda
with a little modification , i bet that would also work great as chicken nesting boxes. thanks for the great idea !
Yes it could.Thanks
That is so funny! Great idea and video folks.
I love the feeder and your baby pigs! I got tickled with them.
Thanks Glen
I do llike the little Pigs! Great idea!
Danny, What a great use of the plastic barrel! We too get a good laugh from our pigs, especially the young ones. :)
Thanks Tracy
Great project
Baby pigs tickled Wanda lol.Entertainment.
Thanks 1 Day
Oh my goodness....too funny with those piggies.
Thanks Dawn
Now that's slicker that a greased pig, Nice job Danny!
Thanks
Little pigs are so funny!!
What a hoot!!! This was too funny. Enjoyed your building it, but love the pigs reaction.
Great idea thanks glenn
That is such a great idea! And i love the "use what you have" technique to put it all together. But i got to tell you, i dont think i have ever laughed so hard at little pigs!!! That was priceless!! =)
Thanks Amanda
They are so cute! Made me laugh.
Thanks Shirley
What a great idea!!!!
great idea for this feeder i would like to make a couple for my pigs , thanks so much for this idea .
You are welcome
Enjoyed the video
Thank you!
Wonderful!!!! Thx
there so cute that is funny watching them going in and out of the new feeder they get use to it
Thanks
Really like your design on that feeder. Good video :-)
Thanks Rich
That is a good idea and it looks like you did a great job putting it together. I really appreciate your attention to detail. Where do you get your silicone substitute (big box store or order)?
Nice build. If you found problems with birds etc getting in you could hinge the cut out pieces so they have to push it open to feed.
Pretty awesome Danny, but are you concerned at all about then getting inside of it so much? It seems like that they would track a lot of mud and debris inside there.
Not really 3 are going to be gone and its made to where you can wash it out.Thanks
Just got this old baby pig feeder video this is very cute and useful but boy are those little guys curious love them chasing The rake and then them getting inside the pig feeder soon they'll be too big to do that
they are really entertaining
Thanks Jeanne
Country boys can survive!
That is so funny at the end....
LOL Thanks
gonna have to make the feeder for our hogs. they gave ma a good laugh.
Thanks Leisa
Danny, Love the feeder. I may have to make on of those. My guess is the piglets will use it to live in.
They are going out to pasture next week. That was the "leaving MOMA" pen. LOL
thank u
thanks for video please if you get time Saturday on your live show talk about what kind of pigs these are and why you like them thanks this is Eric from Alabama
Will do Eric Thanks
Hey Danny, can you give me an update on this pig feeder design please? I wanted to see how it was working out after 6 months use? Would you do any modifications? Is it holding up? Can bigger pigs / hogs get to the feed easily? Did the separation help with the fighting when they are eating?
I am needing to update my feeder and wanted to see.
Also I feed slop and wanted to see if you did as well and if you poured it down the tube where you pour the feed.
Thanks in advance from Chile. Jim
Our 3 pigs are about 100 lbs and they are doing good with it. We do put slop down the tube. The plastic is holding up and no I wouldn't make any modifications. It is good for small pigs and up to 3 large pigs. Thanks
Any advice on where to get the materials at best quality/prices?
I see the drums at walmart and i dont know about the glue
LOL too cute
Hey just found y'all thru Amanda at the fundamental home... She loves you
Thanks and welcome.
Looks like you had plenty of help with the raking. I didn't realize pigs growled either.
Thanks Sharon
I got hubby to watch this one with me and we are both cracking up watching those little pigs go all the way in the feeder and scurrying out. We are wondering if this type of feeder would work for adult pigs though? Our adult pigs are a smaller breed called Idaho pasture pigs (IPP). We currently have 3, and are having to supplement their feed because apparently the pasture(s) we have them rotating in wasn't enough, because they look small or not very heavy even for their breed. We can't see their ribs so not that bad, but they root and this breed was created to not root, but they have ever since the first day we got them. Anyway, we are looking for a cheaper solution to a stable feeder that they don't knock around and doesn't hold water. Thanks!!
The babies had me laughing so hard. This was a great ideal for the feeder. They will outgrow this pin pretty fast at this rate. Danny do you guys do your own butchering? I never could do the hogs and cows had to send them out for that. We did all the chicken and rabbits at home.
They will be turned in the pasture when they are a little bigger and the momma pig dries up her milk.Yes we butcher our own.Thanks
That was fun...
THanks
The quickest way to get a pig to gain weight is to put another pig in the same pen to compete for feed. Did you cut the bores yet. Raising pigs was a big part of my childhood.
Could you do an update on this pig feeder and let us know how well it’s doing over the years and if you made any modifications?
Still using it with the large hogs. I will try to get it done on a video.
What!! Did y'all train them, since their daring escape. Lol.. I thought I heard a bark or growl.. Lol..
Great design! How did it hold up when they got 200+ pounds? :)
How much feed can you put in there
Their so cute and funny. Janice
Thanks,
Wow. That's some nice feeder. What did to call the sealant that you put around the feed pipe? What a hoot those little ones are eating from the feeder. Had a great laugh.
I use Lexel its clear as water and very tough when dry.Thanks
That was fun to watch! Now ya know why all those baby animal videos get so many hits. :)
Thanks JM
I'll be honest; looks really good, but, well, you'll see soon enough. It's fun to get the tools out, but you'll be back at the drawing board pretty soon. Look forward to a reply in a couple of months.... and please do. Make sure you have a lasso.
Looks like you need to make another one so you can have enough room for all of them to eat at the same time.
3 Of them are going to be gone so theres a hole for the 3 left.Thanks
That is a good enough resign for the three holes.
free entertainment ,PRICELESS
I've been raising duroc pigs for 3 years now how's that pig feeder working for you
It worked great while the pigs were being weaned from momma. Now they are in the field.
Success, Danny and Wanda! That was entertaining and I applaud your design. Personally, I could just hear, "Food Guy", "Hey, Food Guy" and "Where's breakfast?" in amongst the rootin' and snufflin'. Thanks for this video. By the way, why did you instruct us to put our corn seeds in the freezer for a couple of weeks? I did it, but am curious if it's to kill any six-legged stowaways and their potential offspring.
They should be put in the freezer to kill any eggs from insects that may be in them.All grain has eggs laid in them no matter what type it is. Thanks
💕💕💕
Thats a good feeder, but I found the weaker piglets didn't get to eat much. I had to start throwing back around the pen. I also would throw in small pieces of cut wood for the to mutilate...lol
The feeder is only for a couple of weeks till they get weened from momma.Thanks
How's the pig feeder holding up? I take it you are several batches of pigs now lol
This feeder would be good for creep feeding piglets that are being weaned but still housed with their mother they could get the food but not the mother pig
Looks wasteful, the little pigs get in with the feed?
😂
Thanks
Deep South Homestead the feeder was genius and a great repurpose but the piglets were the show. I've seen it again and I'm still laughing they are so cute. 😄
That's not how you feed baby pigs!!
they gona eat dat and tear dat to peace
