The Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder Extension Tube is designed to increase the capacity of the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder by approximately 3.3kg per extension tube.
Ideal for larger chicken flocks or poultry keepers who want to refill their feeder less frequently, the extension forms part of Bainbridge's modular Chook Tower system and fits directly to the compatible Chook Tower Feeder.
Please note: this product is the extension tube only. The Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder is sold separately.
The standard Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder holds approximately 4.4kg of poultry feed.
Each Chook Tower Extension Tube adds approximately 3.3kg of additional feed capacity.
Feed capacities are approximate and can vary depending on the type, size and density of poultry feed being used. Bainbridge's stated capacities were tested using whole mixed grain.
This extension tube is designed specifically for the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder.
It is not a complete chicken feeder and does not include the feeder base, feeding hood, lid or other components supplied with the main Chook Tower Feeder.
If you do not already own the compatible feeder, purchase the Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder first.
One extension tube adds approximately 3.3kg of additional feed capacity.
When fitted to the standard 4.4kg Chook Tower Feeder, the combined capacity is approximately 7.7kg.
The actual amount of feed that fits inside the system will vary according to the density and type of poultry feed used.
The modular Chook Tower system allows poultry keepers to increase feed storage without replacing the complete feeder.
This can be particularly useful for:
Increasing the storage capacity does not change the basic feeding method of the Chook Tower. Chickens continue to access feed through the protected feeding opening at the base of the main feeder.
Because the Chook Tower uses a vertical design, additional feed capacity is added upwards rather than by making the feeder substantially wider on the ground.
This makes the extension particularly useful where coop or poultry-run floor space is limited but additional feed storage is desirable.
The best setup depends on your flock size, how much feed your chickens consume and how often you want to refill the feeder.
As a simple capacity guide:
These figures are capacity guides only. Poultry feed varies considerably in density, so actual kilogram capacity will differ between pellets, grain mixes and other feeds.
The Chook Tower range is designed as a modular poultry-feeding system.
In addition to the extension tube, compatible Chook Tower accessories include an optional vermin closure cap and additional mounting brackets, which are available separately.

Pair this extension with the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder and add the Vermin Closure Cap for overnight feeder closure. You can also match the feeding setup with the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Drinker.
