Every backyard flock is different, but one thing remains the same: happy, healthy chickens rely on a feeder that works as hard as you do. Too often, people underestimate how much time and feed they lose to messy designs, spilled grain, or poorly made containers. If you’ve ever swept soggy pellets off the coop floor or lost feed to rodents, you know the frustration
The best feeders for chicken don’t just hold food, they protect it. A truly great feeder keeps pellets dry, thwarts pests, minimizes waste, and fits into any setup, big or small. When designing our Poultry Pro Feeder, we wanted something you could trust in all seasons. Our feeder is made to fit any container, shields feed from rain and wind, and stops chickens from flicking food all over the coop. It’s tough, weather-proof, and installation only takes a few minutes. The difference isn’t just in the flavor of your eggs, it’s in every calmer, cleaner morning you walk into the coop. And with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, you know we stand by every kit.
A quick online search reveals a flood of imported feeders offering “similar” designs for a fraction of the price. But, as many discover, these often use flimsy plastic, warp in the sun, and may even leach chemicals into your birds’ feed. Worse, they’re rarely backed by real warranties or community support. We’ve seen first-hand how these knock-offs can cost more in replacements and headaches. One customer told us, “After the handle broke on a cheap feeder, scattering grain everywhere, I learned the hard way that quality can’t be faked.” Riverbend Resources feeders are proudly Made in the USA, using food-grade, durable materials tested by real families in real backyards. Our products last through New England winters and Texas summers.
Riverbend Resources actually started as a homestead project right here in Massachusetts. When our founder, Erik Diedrichsen, couldn’t find a feeder that kept food safe from the area’s unpredictable weather and persistent chipmunks, he invented his own. We knew if we could solve our own coop woes, we could help others who wanted to enjoy chickens without daily cleanup drama. What began as a single DIY kit (and a few pretty funny attempts at teaching hens new tricks) has now helped tens of thousands of families care for their flocks. For fun, you should know our first batch of feeders tested outdoors in Massachusetts survived both a blizzard and, legendarily, a curious alpaca!
Every flock, and every keeper, has different needs. We love seeing customers use our feeder ports to create custom systems that fit their coops perfectly. Whether you’re working with a small shed or a large barn, a Chicken feeders DIY approach means you use what you already have and save money. With our kit, you just drill into any bucket, bin, or barrel, snap the ports in, and instantly have a gravity-fed, weatherproof system. Users often say building a feeder themselves “felt like the best kind of backyard win,” letting them stretch budgets without compromise.
Giving Back, One Feeder at a Time
