Standard Chook Tower Feeder: approximately 4.4kg Feeder + 1 Extension Tube: approximately 7.7kg total capacity Feeder + 2 Extension Tubes: approximately 11kg total 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. Bainbridge Chook Tower Extension Tube Features Adds approximately 3.3kg capacity: increases the amount of poultry feed that can be stored in the Chook Tower. Designed specifically for the Chook Tower Feeder: forms part of Bainbridge's modular feeding system. Expandable system: additional extension tubes can be used when greater feed capacity is required. Ideal for larger flocks: increased capacity can reduce how frequently the feeder needs topping up. Maintains the vertical feeder design: adds capacity upwards rather than requiring a larger feeding footprint. Australian-designed Chook Tower system: made as a compatible component of Bainbridge's Australian poultry-feeding range. What Does The Chook Tower Extension Tube Fit? 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. How Much Extra Chicken Feed Does One Extension Hold? 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. Expandable Chicken Feeder For Larger Flocks The modular Chook Tower system allows poultry keepers to increase feed storage without replacing the complete feeder. This can be particularly useful for: Larger backyard chicken flocks Laying hens Free-range poultry areas Hobby farms Poultry breeders Properties where feeders are not topped up several times each day 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. More Capacity Without Increasing The Feeder Footprint 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. How Many Chook Tower Extensions Do I Need? 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: 4.4kg: standard feeder without an extension Approximately 7.7kg: standard feeder with one extension Approximately 11kg: standard feeder with two extensions 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.
