Want a touch of colour where it counts — right where your chickens eat?

The Large Red & White Feeder puts colour where your hens notice it most — right at the base where they eat. Red is a colour poultry are naturally drawn to, and this two-tone feeder puts it exactly where they interact. Same trusted design 50,000+ Aussie chook keepers rely on, same 4.7L capacity, same waste-reducing hooded base — just a distinctive look. Already have a Small Feeder Red Base? They’re the same colour combination — a coordinated pair.

How does the Large Red & White Feeder work?

Same mechanism as the standard Large Feeder. Easy to refill — just turn the handle on the lid to lift it off, pour in feed, and twist it back on. Feed gravity-feeds into a hooded base opening. The hood gives your hens room to eat comfortably, but the shape prevents the raking and flicking motion that scatters feed onto the ground. A built-in rain hood channels water away from the opening, keeping feed dry outdoors. No moving parts, no training — your chickens start eating within minutes.

What size flock is this feeder for?

The 4.7L capacity suits flocks of around 6–8 hens. It holds roughly 3.7kg of feed — about 5–7 days’ worth on quality complete pellets. Enough to leave your flock for a long weekend without worrying about feed. Browse the Dine-A-Chook feeder collection to find the right size for your setup.

Want to save $10? The standard white Large Feeder does the same job at $69.95. Prefer a stronger colour statement? The Big Red is fully red for $84.95.

What’s in the box?

Feeder with twist-on lid, 2 steel mounting brackets, 4 self-tapping screws, and an installation guide. Mounts directly to timber — ready to install, no extra parts needed.

Mounting to wire mesh? You’ll need the Wire Mesh Mounting Kit (sold separately).

What feed works best with this feeder?

Works best with quality complete feed — crumble or pellets. These give your hens balanced nutrition in every bite and reduce selective eating. Grain mixes let hens pick their favourites and miss essential nutrients.

If the feed level looks low in the tray, that’s by design — it keeps feed away from edges so your hens can’t flick it out. Try the finger test: push your finger into the opening. If you can move the feed, your chickens can reach it.

Why is this feeder built to last?

Both the white body and red base are made from UV-resistant ASA plastic — engineered to resist colour fading and UV degradation. The red isn’t a coating — it’s part of the plastic itself, so it won’t peel, chip, or wash off. Every component is injection moulded in Brisbane and assembled in Townsville. No moving parts means nothing to jam, seize, or break. Backed by a 3-year warranty.

Q. What’s the difference between this feeder and The Big Red?
A. This feeder has a white body with a red base — a clean two-tone look. The Big Red (our fully red version) is red from lid to base at $84.95. Both are the same 4.7L feeder with identical function. This one is the mid-price colour option at $79.95 — between the standard white at $69.95 and The Big Red at $84.95.
Q. Can I match this with the Small Feeder Red Base?
A. Yes — the Small Feeder Red Base has the same white body and red base design. If you run a mixed flock or want different feeder sizes in different spots, these two make a coordinated set.
Q. Why does this feeder cost $10 more than the white version?
A. The red base is a distinct colour production run of ASA plastic. The $10 premium reflects the colour manufacturing, not any difference in function. If you’re choosing purely on price, the standard white Large Feeder does exactly the same job at $69.95.
Q. Does the red base actually attract chickens?
A. Poultry are naturally drawn to the colour red — it’s one of the reasons red waterers and feeders are popular with experienced keepers. The red base is right where your hens interact with the feeder. While every flock is different, many keepers find their hens approach a red feeding station with more curiosity and confidence.
Q. Will the colours fade in the sun?
A. Both the white body and red base are made from UV-resistant ASA plastic — engineered to resist colour fading from UV exposure. The red is part of the plastic itself, not a surface coating, so it won’t peel, chip, or wash off.
Q. What feed works best with this feeder?
A. Quality complete feed — crumble or pellets — gives your hens balanced nutrition in every bite and reduces selective eating. Grain mixes let hens pick their favourites and miss essential nutrients, so a quality complete feed is the better choice. If the feed level looks low in the tray, that’s by design — the finger test: if you can move the feed in the opening, your chickens can reach it.
Q. Will this feeder stop rats?
A. The feeder is vermin-resistant, not vermin-proof. By keeping feed contained and off the ground, it removes one of the main attractants for rodents. For additional overnight protection, pair it with a Closure Cap — it seals the feeding opening when rodents are most active. If you’re dealing with a persistent rodent problem, give us a call on 1800 103 326 and we can help you work through it.
