PRIEFERT CFC CREEP FEEDER
Priefert's creep feeder, with a Calf Pass Panel kit, is a great way of
providing a continuous free flow of feed to small livestock such as
calves. Calf Pass Panels allow access through openings large enough for
calves to fit through, but small enough to restrict access by cows. The
feeder is constructed from galvanized steel and then powder coated to
ensure that it has a long life, even in harsh conditions. Feed can be
quickly and easily loaded into the Creep Feeder by sliding open the top
of the feeder. The Calf Pass Panels can be adjusted to fit various calf
sizes by raising or lowering the horizontal bar on the pass panel. The
Calf Pass Panels are securely held in place with 5/8” locking pins. The
Architectural Grade Powder Coat Finish helps the product to resist rust,
scratches, and fading to add years of life to your investment. Donated by
Tommy Dugdale (Tommy’s Feed Store and More) and Priefert District
Sales Representative, Charles Woods, all proceeds will benefit the
scholarship fund.
