Abstract
A block feeder for feeding animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, deer, and the like is provided. The block feeder comprises a feed bin, support bar, and leg structure. The feed bin has an open bottom and the feed blocks are supported by the support bar so that a portion of the bottom feed blocks are exposed to the animals. The feed bin keeps the feed blocks dry, which minimizes spoilage and allows the block feeder to be restocked less frequently. As the animals consume the feed blocks, the feed blocks slide downward, exposing more of the feed block to the animals. The block feeder also may include a tray located beneath the feed block so that waste of scrap feed falling from the feed block is minimized.
