I bought the trailed snacker to feed beef cattle, with the bigger wheels and 500kg capacity, it’s great behind my UTV. Easy to use and very robust, highly recommended.

Leave feeding by bags in the past
Don’t mess around with bagged feed and troughs, the TF350 Livestock Feeder / Sheep Snacker allows you to drop the right amount of feed in the right place each time.
Drop size is variable from 0.5kg to 2kg (approx), and drop spacing is controlled by the forward speed of the ATV, UTV or Quad with a 350 litre hopper capacity as standard, and optional extension sides taking capacity to 600 litres.
Focus on your stock
The digital counter ensures you know exactly how much has been deposited and allows you to focus on checking stock condition.
Operable as either a count-up timer, from 0 drops upwards, or as a countdown counter, whereby the desired number of drops is set, and the machine will deposit exactly that amount of feed, simply and reliably each and every time.
Electronic Drive
The electronic drive system on the TF350 stock feeder has few moving parts and only rotates when in operation, reducing wear and tear, and allowing towing over longer distances. All electronic components are IP67 rated, for use in the toughest conditions.
Simple operation is simple along with a large, brightly back-lit display which is easy to read even in the worst conditions. The countdown function is ideal for reliably dropping exactly the right amount of feed and freeing the operator to focus solely on checking stock condition.
Industry Leading Ground Clearance
The TF350 trailed sheep snacker by Chapman Machinery is designed to be exceptionally strong, yet lightweight enough for use in wet, wintry conditions. Steel, fully galvanised chassis and hopper are extremely heavy duty, yet light to tow. Steel will not fade, become brittle and crack as plastic hoppers can!
Conventional drum-operated machines suffer from low ground clearance – the TF350 has a minimum 300mm ground clearance, and when combined with the steel ‘belly pan’ means the TF350 can go anywhere the towing vehicle can go.
