        Protein in one, corn in one and apple corn in one. Have each one feed on certain days.... This will have everything in the world coming to eat like Jared at subway for the Monday meatball, Tuesday turkey, Wednesday ham.....

          Excellent idea. Even if you ran 3 motors off or it, one on each barrell. That make sure that there was always one working, would prevent any kind of clogging,

                What size and gauge steel did you use for the frame. Also the size on the feeder tubes. I am going back and forth on the feeder tubes... making them of pvc or steel or even leaving the down tubes off and going with two 12 volt feeder units.....

                Going to make one with 2 55 gallon drums.. Thanks

                  The frame is 1 1/2" 14 gauge tubing.I wound up going with 2" square tubing 3/16 wall for the legs.The down spouts are 3" tubing and the protein spout is 4".The frame will hold up way more weight than the barrels can hold.Two timers sounds like a good idea.

                    I think it would be easier to use two timers... The cost actually would be less using two timers. I get the complete 12 volt timer unit off ebay for abut $50.00 has a name of Tundra Quest.. Thanks
