1 The grower can more easily fol'ow prescribed
feeding practices and programs He has control of
the system
2 Every feeder line accepts interchangeable pan
sizes, medium depth and deep pans, Plus Big
Dutchman offers The Orange One, a smaller feeder
with a more shallow 13-inch diameter pan for starting
poults
3 Feed depth and flow are controlled by a single
winch at the hopper end of the line Accurate settings
are easy to make without time-consuming, one-by
one adjustments Only Big Dutchman offers this
depth control feature
4 The Big Dutchman turkey feeding system has an
outstanding capability for programmed feeding The
cable adjustment mechanism allows the operator to
fill all the pans in the line to maximum capacity when
birds are first brought into the house As feed is eaten
out of the pans, the adjustable skirt will move down
to the pre-selected position
• Interchangeable pan sizes provide versatility matching the feeding
equipment to the needs and growth stages of the flock from poults
to heavy toms
