In this part, the map of some samples of grain feeders and water feeders for breeding ostriches and chickens will be shown. In order to make water feeders and grain feeders for ostriches, several points should be paid attention to.

1- The height and dimensions of the feeder should be in a way that is comfortable for the bird. For this purpose, feeders with different dimensions should be made for different ages. For breeding ostriches, a height of about 60 cm is desirable, and for chickens, a height of about 20 cm. It should be noted that if the container of an adult bird is on the ground, the food will go up because the food of ostriches is in the form of flour, and both the wind takes a part of it and the bird itself drops a part of it on the ground.

2- The shape of the dish is very important because the way ostriches eat is different from other birds. Ostriches have a big beak and they fill their beak with food in the form of a spoon, and for this reason, the minimum opening of the dish for an adult bird is about 40 centimeters.

3- The container of water and cereal should be washable and disinfectable.

4- The location of the feeding bowl should be in a place that is not exposed to rain or wind. On the other hand, it is better for the brood to be at least 6 meters away from the drinking bowl and the feeding bowl, and for the chickens, it should be at least 2 meters away. It is for this reason that the bird goes to the water after eating food, so there must be a distance so that the food has gone down the long neck of the ostrich and the food does not return to the water container.

According to the explanations that have been said, different containers can be made, but the containers that we suggest in this topic are made with plastic barrels. The plastic barrel is light and can be easily washed. On the other hand, it is very cheap and in case of damage It can be easily replaced. The details of these grain feeders and water feeders will follow
