The Big Red Chook feeder and Twin lubing cup drinker
Dine a Chook Australian Made
The Big Red Chook Feeder and Twin Lubing Cup Drinker are guaranteed to outlast all others. As the original inventors of the waste-reducing, waterproof Chicken Feeder, we seriously know what we are talking about.
So why the red colour? We surveyed 100 backyard chickens and asked them what is their favourite colour. And the top answer is, RED.
New to chooks? Here are a few little secrets:
Firstly, don’t let the staff at the pet shop tell you that one of those green upside-down plant pot feeders for $30 is all you need in your backyard chicken coop. Secondly, ask them for a written guarantee that the green bell-shaped chicken feeder won't degrade in the sun and fall apart, waste feed, fill with water when it rains and cost you a fortune in feed bills.
There are over 10 years of research and development in our current Dine a Chook Feeders and Drinkers. Thanks to years of testing in backyard chicken coops all over Australia, our products are built to last and make chicken keeping easier by keeping the coop clean, and dry.

The Dine a Chook Difference
We had chickens long before we started Dine a Chook, and we still do! We understand the problems that backyard chicken keepers face and our goal is to provide solutions.
That is why Dine a Chook Chicken Feeders and Drinkers stand out from the competition: Our products have been extensively tested in Australian backyards, including our own! Our patented innovations and unique design features really work to make backyard chicken keeping easier.
We know how important good coop management is. A clean, dry coop, and uncontaminated feed and water, are essential for poultry health. Our Feeders reduce waste, keeping feed dry and off the floor. And our Waterers keep water clean and prevent spillage.
Dine a Chook Feeders and Drinkers are made in Australia, supporting Aussie jobs. And we use genuine Lubing Drinker Outlets from Germany because they are the best for poultry. Our products are built to last and come with an exclusive guarantee. Tested in the harsh Australian climate, don’t run over them with a tractor and we bet you won’t need to buy another Feeder or Drinker again!
As a family business, the most important thing to us is our customers. Need help with an order? Want chicken keeping advice? If you have a question about your flock, give us a call on 1800 103 326 during Queensland business hours.
