Abstract
An animal feeder, with separate pivotally supported gates on each side thereof which are generally vertically adjustable by adjustment means readily accessible at each side of the apparatus for varying the size of the respective feed discharge openings, is provided with means for permitting enhanced agitation of the feed in the hopper and means for improving the control of feed from the hopper including means overlapping with the ends of the pivotally supported gates for preventing feed from the feeder storage hopper from flowing around the side ends of the gates, and also with locking means for many easily securing the gates in desired vertically adjusted positions while permitting increased agitation of the feed in the hopper.
