8′ Cement Feeders

An 8′ cement feeder is a permanent feeding point built from concrete. It does not rot, does not rust, and it does not walk across the pen when a cow leans on it. Set it in place and it stays.

Cement also holds up to the constant wear of cattle eating against the edge. Where a steel bunk eventually wears thin at the lip, concrete just gets smoother.

The trade-off is weight. A cement feeder is set once and not moved, which makes it a good fit for a permanent pen, a barn lot or a feed alley where the same spot is used year after year. Because it is 8′ long, it suits a small pen or a section of a longer bunk line. Set it on level ground with good drainage so water does not stand under the trough.
