Harris Farms Green Plastic Chick Feeder for Quart Jar, Model 1030592

A green screw-on base that turns a compatible quart jar into a feeder for chicks and small gamebirds. The jar is sold separately.

A simple jar feeder for young birds

This Harris Farms feeder is the green plastic base only. It screws onto a compatible glass or plastic quart jar, which supplies the feed reservoir above the tray. Manna Pro describes the feeder for chicks and small gamebirds. The jar is not included, so have a clean quart jar ready before setting up the feeder. Model 1030592 and UPC 843635012440 identify this green plastic base. They also distinguish it from similarly shaped poultry drinker bases and from other brands’ feeder bases. A jar feeder is a useful choice when you want to serve dry feed in a compact footprint. The jar holds a reserve above the feeding tray, and the base gives birds access around its edge. Use a compatible jar that screws firmly into the base. A jar that rocks, leaks, has a damaged rim, or does not seat securely is a poor fit. Check the connection after filling and again after moving the feeder. Keep it on a stable, level surface so the base is less likely to tip while birds gather around it. Before choosing this model, decide whether you need a feeder or a waterer. The feeder base is designed to hold feed. A waterer base has a different purpose and shape, even when both screw onto quart jars. The item photo shows the green feeder base, not a jar or a complete feeder kit. If you already own a suitable quart jar, this base lets you put it to work as a small-bird feeder. If you do not have one, source the jar separately and confirm its fit before relying on the assembled feeder. For routine upkeep, empty old feed and brush crumbs from the tray before refilling. Wash the jar and base when they are soiled, then let them dry before adding fresh feed. Check the screw connection and tray whenever you refill. Replace a cracked base or a jar that no longer fastens securely. Keep feed dry and remove damp or spoiled material rather than mixing it into a fresh fill. Those small checks help the feeder stay steady and make it easier to see when the birds need more feed. This model gives you the base; the quart jar and feed are separate purchases.
