Abstract
An animal feed proportioning device having a feed holding bin and an inlet channel that are separated by a vertical array of sliding gates. Each gate permits the bin to be filled to a predetermined level for later discharge by a discharge gate. Additionally, divider panels selectively block off portions of either the bin or inlet channel from the inflow of feed in order to reduce the amount of feed being metered through the device.
