The Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder Vermin Closure Cap is a purpose-designed accessory for the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder, allowing the feeding opening to be closed at night to help manage rodent access to poultry feed.
The cap fits over the end of the Chook Tower Feeder hood and provides a simple way to close off the feeding area when your chickens are not using the feeder.
Please note: this listing is for the closure cap only. The Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder is sold separately.
Chicken feed left accessible overnight can attract rats, mice and other unwanted animals to poultry areas.
The Bainbridge Chook Tower Feeder is designed to help reduce feed waste and pest access, while the optional closure cap provides an additional way to manage the feeding opening when chickens are not actively feeding.
At the end of the day, the cap can be fitted over the feeder hood to close the opening overnight.
In the morning, remove the cap before allowing your chickens to access the feeder again.
The closure cap should not be described as making the feeder completely rat-proof or rodent-proof. Good feed storage, coop hygiene and broader rodent-management practices remain important.

This closure cap is designed to fit the feeding hood of the Bainbridge Chook Tower Chicken Feeder 4.4kg.

No. The cap helps restrict access to the feeding opening when fitted, but it should not be considered a complete rodent-control solution. Good feed storage and rodent-management practices should still be used around poultry areas.
