Abstract: A gravity operated animal feeder, including, a reservoir area defined by at least two vertically sloped upper sides projecting upward and away from each other at distal ends. And, a dispensing area located under and: (i) in feeding communication with the reservoir area, and (ii) including at least two vertically sloped lower sides projecting downward and toward each other at proximal ends. And also, a vertical frame spaced from at least one of the at least two vertically sloped lower sides and defining an animal feeding region located adjacent to the dispensing area between the vertical frame and the vertically sloped lower sides. The feeder further includes a feeding trough area located under and: (i) in feeding communication with the dispensing area, and (ii) including a bottom located directly under and spaced from the proximal ends of the vertically sloped lower sides.
