A feeding station for farm animals (), as in particular for pigs, provided with a first reservoir () for a first animal food component, a first conveyor pipe () connected to the first reservoir (), with a first conveyor screw () extending internally of the first conveyor pipe (), and a mouthpiece () for reception in the mouth of an animal (). A first end of the first conveyor screw () is coupled adjacent to the first reservoir () to a rotatable first drive () and a second end of the first conveyor screw () ends shortly before the mouthpiece (). The feeding station () is further provided with at least a second reservoir () for a second animal food component, a second conveyor pipe () connected to the second reservoir with a second conveyor screw () extending internally of the second conveyor pipe (). A first end of the second conveyor screw () is coupled adjacent to the second reservoir () to a second drive () which is rotatable independently of the first drive (). The second conveyor pipe () is joined together with the first conveyor pipe () adjacent to a second end of the second conveyor screw (). The first and second drives () are operable by a control unit () in accordance with a desired mixing ratio of the first and second animal food components.
