Hanging Feeder Trixie TX-5473 — 200 ml capacity, hanging bird/rodent feeder

Hanging feeder Trixie TX-5473 is a compact 200 ml feed dispenser designed for small birds and rodents. The unit can be suspended in cages or aviaries, offering a transparent reservoir for easy visual checking of feed levels and a simple attachment that keeps feed accessible while helping to reduce contamination. Its size and construction make it suitable for everyday feeding and short travel use where a small, secure feeder is required.

Advantages

This hanging feeder provides a hygienic feeding solution by keeping food elevated and reducing contact with bedding or droppings. The clear container enables quick visual inspection so you can see when refilling is needed without opening the cage. The compact 200 ml capacity balances between frequent monitoring and minimizing leftover stale food. The simple hanging mechanism allows quick mounting and removal for cleaning or transport.

• Use inside indoor cages and sheltered outdoor aviaries

Key specifications

• Intended animals: small birds and small rodents

How to use

Fill the reservoir with an appropriate feed for the species you keep, taking care not to overfill beyond the indicated capacity. Attach the feeder to horizontal or vertical bars using the integrated suspension hook so it is stable and at a comfortable height for the animals. Check feed level daily and clean the feeder regularly to prevent mold and bacterial growth. For travel use, ensure the feeder is secured to prevent spillage and place it in a sheltered area of the carrier or travel cage.

Usage recommendations

Use species-appropriate dry feed and avoid moist or paste-type foods that can spoil quickly in a closed reservoir. Regularly inspect and clean the feeder with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse thoroughly before reuse. Position the feeder to minimize exposure to rain or direct sunlight when used outdoors, and monitor small pets for ease of access to the feeder until they are accustomed to its placement.
