Lubratec® Feeder
Horses have an instinctive need to constantly take in food. As a result, the horse's stomach permanently produces gastric acid, which can only be neutralised by saliva. This is produced by chewing while eating. Therefore, regular portioned feeding plays an important role in the nutrition of horses in order to avoid colic, stomach ulcers or behavioural disorders.
A feeding trough with built-in time control is therefore ideal for feeding the horses at regular intervals while at the same time observing feeding breaks. The steel cuboid rack is suitable for round and square bales as well as hay nets and can be filled with a swivel gate. The four gates made of UV-resistant material can be opened and closed up to 20 times a day and thus enable time- and labour-saving feeding.
