Because Easy Is Better.



Fresh feed, all the time. Every time.
The MealMeter was developed by an intuitive producer who was frustrated by wasted feed and limited feed intake in the breeding area of his sow farm. This sow feeding device is instrumental in increasing feed consumption with every sow at this critical time in her reproductive cycle while at the same time greatly reducing feed waste. In areas that are either labor intensive or full of feed and water waste, the MealMeter takes the human element out of feeding and meets the demands of each sow’s varied eating times.

Customers Love Our Products
Tops! IMO best breeding assistant on the market! Wouldn’t want to breed gilts without them!
Excellent customer service and products!
“I tried two MealMeters for about 6 months prior to my decision and those crates consistently had more feed intake. We are now averaging 1 kg more at a minimum for the same lactation length. We are happy!”
“We have the PigEasy Sow Feeder. It is by far the best feeder I have used and I have been in the business raising pigs for 34 years.”
“The SnoutSpout is working great. We have a few different styles of crates and they were easily modified to fit all. Very durable and mount securely.”
“The SnoutSpout is customizable and simple to install. You can drill holes wherever you need them.”
“The feed is fresh in the trough, so you don’t have to scrape out uneaten feed,” Chet says. “(The MealMeter) has cut our feed waste by at least 5 percent.”
“The ideas Dave comes up with are amazing,” says Ben, referring to PigEasy’s founder, Dave Klocke, a pork producer from Templeton, Iowa. “I love the fact that PigEasy’s products work as promised. I look forward to seeing what they come up with next.”
“I think the SnoutSpout is an excellent product. It is easy to install, and once installed it stays secured. It is very durable and I appreciate the reduced profile of the spout. There is nothing which protrudes into the crate and no risk of injury to the sow.”
“I’m happy with the PigEasy feeders. You don’t have to worry about bad feed in the bottom. We’ve seen better feed intake compared to the other feeders we have used. They’re really a good deal.”
“Tagging with the ID Cart is way easier than tagging by hand and about 3 times faster. We have tagged around 8400 pigs with it and it still works great.”
We love the ID cart! We’re able to have one person tagging pigs versus two and cuts tagging time in half. It’s very user friendly, easy to use product that speeds up the tagging process.
“I’ve tried others, but this breeding saddle works by far the best.”
“The PigEasy products are innovative and have provided practical solutions to some management challenges on our farm. The products are well constructed and work the way they were described.”
The PipePik works well because it’s easy to handle and is very efficient compared to how we previously cleaned feed tubes. You can clean lots of tubes in a short amount of time.
“We are a return customer for the Chuck-It Bucket. The large capacity makes the handling of afterbirth and dead piglets a lot easier and much more Bio-secure.”
“We use the MealMeter in lactation with the feed hopper and like that the sow can eat at her own pleasure and don’t feel rushed when eating compared to regular hand feeding. We’re really pleased with the system.”
