Available in 1200 lb. and 1800 lb. Capacities (based on rolled corn)
for Efficient Bunk or Range Supplement Feeding

The HydraFEEDER® is a truck bed bale feeder and precision feed dispenser designed for efficient bunk or range supplement feeding. Built for durability and consistent delivery, it handles cubes, grain, and other rations with controlled hydraulic performance to help reduce waste and save time.

Hydraulic or Electric Driven Supplement Feeder

The HydraFeeder® beltless, chainless direct drive system provides simple, dependable feed discharge. The hydraulic or electric power source is directly coupled to the 8” discharge auger. With minimal feed damage, the unit can discharge up to 9 lbs. per second of shelled corn (at engine idle for hydraulic feeder). The HydraFeeder® is designed to be loaded onto and unloaded from the HydraBed® by the bale handling arms. The unit can also be used on a three-point tractor mount or Triple C’s HydraTM2000™ and powered by the tractor hydraulic system. Available in two sizes.

DRIVE OPTIONS

HYDRAULIC

The HydraFeeder® hydraulic drive is a direct mount hydraulic motor. It is reversible and variable speed, higher flows will produce proportionally higher auger RPMs. Back-lit programmable display counter is standard equipment (mounts in-cab). The 3rd spool valve is required for the hydraulic drive motor

ELECTRIC

The HydraFeeder® electric drive motor powers the auger at 85 RPM. An external switch located at the discharge tube provides easy bucket filling. Back-lit programmable display counter is standard equipment (mounts in-cab).

HydraFeeder FAQs

  • What is the HydraFeeder® cube and supplement feeder used for?

    The HydraFeeder® is a truck-mounted cube feeder and supplement feeder designed for controlled bunk or range feeding of livestock. It functions as a mobile feed dispenser for efficient daily feeding operations.

  • What feed types and capacities are supported by the HydraFeeder®?

    It handles cubes, rolled corn, and similar rations, with 1200 lb. and 1800 lb. capacity options based on rolled corn.


  • What is the difference between the hydraulic and electric drive options?

    The hydraulic drive option powers the unit through the truck’s existing hydraulic system and functions as a hydraulic auger attachment for controlled feed delivery. The electric drive option operates independently using a motor-powered system while maintaining consistent auger performance.


  • How does the direct-drive auger system improve feed consistency and reduce damage?

    The direct-drive auger delivers steady output with fewer moving components, helping maintain feed integrity and consistent flow.


  • How is the HydraFeeder® loaded, unloaded, and mounted for operation?

    The unit is mounted in the truck bed and loaded from above. Auger discharge allows controlled unloading directly into bunks or on the ground.


  • What control and metering features are included for accurate feed delivery?

    Operators utilizing the hydraulic drive option can adjust feed flow for measured distribution, improving ration control and reducing waste.


  • How can producers purchase the HydraFeeder®, find an authorized dealer, or contact HydraBed directly?

    Producers can contact HydraBed or work through an authorized dealer for product details and ordering information.
