Goat and sheep hay feeder plans

A covered hay box for smaller livestock

This feeder has a raised floor, slatted sides and a pitched metal roof. The design holds about two small square bales, opened out in the box, and is separate from our larger covered hay feeder

Check the space before you build

The metric edition lists an overall roof size of 2430 × 1410 mm and a height of 1940 mm. The post footprint is 1840 × 865 mm. A separate imperial edition is included

The listing rates this as a confident-beginner project. Compare the feeding openings and slat gaps in the plans with the animals that will use it
