We’re calling time on mess, pests and wasted cash. Say hello to the world’s most frugal flock feeder.
No spill, no mess, no fuss.
We studied the way chickens eat to innovate the feeding experience by design.
See how our Smart No Waste Chicken Feeder compares to others here.
Works straight out the box, no phone required.
Chicken feeder ports open and close automatically on a daylight sensor. Removing the need to take the feeder in at night.
Never run out of feed again. Connect to the Omlet app via WiFi for refill alerts.
Bye-bye bullying. With a 360 degree five-port design, all your hens can feed in harmony.
Feeds 8 hens for 7 days.
The wide, anti-topple tripod base stands up to strong winds and pushy hens.
Gravity funnels feed down to the five ports of the automatic chicken feeder.
Suitable for all dry chicken feed types.
To keep the feed fresh we recommend you position your Smart Feeder in a sheltered location avoiding rain from any direction, or too much direct sunlight. However, if you are using the Feeder in a non-connected mode, you will need to make sure it picks up enough natural light to be able to determine when to open and close.
If you would like to access all the additional smart features, your feeder will need to be in range of your Wi-Fi.
Hens need 150 grams of feed per day. You will find your feed goes further due to no waste from the feeder.

Yes, out of the box the feeder will be set to a default mode that follows the sunlight to open at dawn and close at dusk. You can connect to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth for more functionality at a later date.
If you don’t want to connect your feeder to the Omlet app, it will work on a default light setting that opens and closes depending on levels of daylight. There is also a manual push button on the feeder that will open and close the feeding ports.
If you connect to Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, you can set the level of daylight you want the feeder to open and close at, or you can program it to open and close at set times of the day. You can use the light or time setting, but it’s not possible to use different settings at the same time.
Yes, if you are using the app you can set up to four separate opening and closing times.
In the sense that you will be able to set the times or light levels when the feeder opens and closes, yes.
However, there is no “Open” or “Close” button in the app that will immediately change the position of the doors.
Yes, there is a manual button on the feeder that allows you to open and close the feeding ports.
Please note, this function cannot be performed remotely through the app.
The Smart Feeder is suitable for the majority of dry feed types, including crumble, seed and pellets.
However the Smart Feeder is not suitable to use for wet/fermented food or grit.
The feeder is suitable for all types of chicken breeds, including bantams.
If you opt for hanging your feeder from the roof of your run you can also adjust the height to suit your flock.
The Smart Feeder has only been designed for, and tested with, chickens, so we don’t recommend using it with other poultry.
You will manually be able to see the feed level using the window at the front of the feeder, but once the feed drops to below 25% capacity, the light will start flashing pink to remind you to refill the feeder.
If your feeder is connected to Wi-Fi you will be able to remotely monitor the feed level and you will get a notification on your phone when it's time to refill.
The feeder has a failsafe mode that defaults the doors to the open position if the battery level goes below 3% before you have time to change the batteries.
If you're connected to the app you will be able to keep track on the battery level and change the batteries before the level gets too low. Additionally, the LED on the front of the feeder will start flashing red when the battery goes below 10%, prompting you to change them.
If the doors to the ports detect a blockage while attempting to close, they will stop and gently re-open again. You can try again by pressing the control button, or else the feeder will automatically try to close again in 5 minutes.
This depends on the strength of your Wi-Fi, but it’s advisable to keep the feeder within 20m of a Wi-Fi source.
To check the range, we recommend connecting your phone to the wireless network you wish to use and standing where you wish to place your feeder. If your phone indicates a good Wi-Fi signal, it should be sufficient to use with the Omlet Smart Feeder.
If your phone only shows one bar of Wi-Fi, or none at all, then you could find the signal is too weak for the feeder to connect and you might be better off connecting to Bluetooth.
The Smart Feeder is designed to reduce spill that attract rodents and other pests. The feeding ports also lock shut during the night (when most pests are active), preventing access to the feed. Additionally, the feeder is made from strong ABS plastic with smooth, gnaw-resistant surfaces.
However, a very determined rodent may be able to gnaw through this material over time, so we recommend you check the feeder periodically for any signs of pest related damage.
