A system and method for a feeder. The feeder has a stand with a planar face. Below the stand is at least one leg which supports the stand. Extending upward from the face is at least one support and a spreader. A barrel is coupled to the at least one support. A hole in the bottom of the barrel allows feed to flow from the barrel to the downstream spreader. The system and method provide a feeder which can be filled without the use of a ladder.
