If you’ve ever found yourself sweeping up spilled feed or chasing away pests from your chicken coop, you know how frustrating traditional feeders can be. At Riverbend Resources, we believe in making poultry care simple, efficient, and enjoyable. That’s why we’re excited to talk about the gravity chicken feeder. It is a smart, reliable solution that’s changing the way backyard chicken keepers care for their flocks.
A gravity chicken feeder is a simple yet ingenious device that uses gravity to keep your chickens fed. Feed is stored in a container, usually a bucket or barrel, and as your chickens eat, more feed flows down into the tray or port below. This means you don’t have to refill the feeder as often, and your chickens always have access to fresh, clean food. Gravity feeders are low maintenance, easy to use, and can hold a large amount of feed—making them a favorite among both new and experienced poultry keepers.
Gravity feeders solve many of the common problems chicken owners face. Traditional feeders often leave feed exposed, leading to waste, mess, and attracting pests. With a gravity feeder, feed stays inside the container, reducing spillage and keeping it dry and fresh. This not only saves you money on feed but also makes your coop cleaner and healthier. Plus, because gravity feeders are easy to refill and clean, you’ll spend less time on chores and more time enjoying your flock.
At Riverbend Resources, we’ve taken the gravity chicken feeder concept and made it even better. Our Poultry Pro Feeder kit lets you turn any plastic container into a spill-proof, weatherproof feeding station. Chickens eat from inside the container, so there’s no wasted feed and fewer pests.
The kit comes with everything you need for easy installation, and it’s designed to last. Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast or just looking for a hassle-free solution, our chicken gravity feeder is built to meet your needs and keep your flock happy.
Just as important as a good feeder is a reliable waterer. A large poultry waterer ensures your chickens always have access to clean, fresh water—especially in hot weather or when you’re away from home. Riverbend Resources offers the Poultry Pro Waterer, which instantly transforms any standard 5-gallon bucket into a high-capacity, gravity-fed water dispenser. The waterer is easy to fill, easy to clean, and designed to minimize spills and contamination. With its anti-microbial features and hands-free filling option, the Poultry Pro Waterer is the perfect companion for your gravity feeder, giving your flock everything they need to stay healthy and hydrated.
Riverbend Resources began as a family homesteading project in Massachusetts. Erik Diedrichsen, our founder, noticed the challenges of traditional feeders—mess, waste, and pests. He designed a simple, effective solution: a weatherproof feeder attachment that lets chickens eat from inside a container. The idea caught on, and soon, Riverbend Resources was featured on Shark Tank, where Erik shared his vision for making poultry care easier and more efficient. The exposure helped us grow, and today, our products are trusted by backyard farmers across the country.
