Looky Lou Feeder--Fixed Position

Adaptable • Strong • Innovative • Attractive• Affordable • Safe • Challenging

Are you a professional working with self-aware animals? There is a lot of discussion in the world about the definition of “self-aware” and which animals are and which are not. Whatever your personal view, one thing is clear; as the world community studies and discusses this definition, more and more animals are being recognized as being self-aware to varying degrees.

All Looky Lou Feeders have a single Mirror; 4” Fill Port behind mirror; includes choice of double 3/4” feeder holes, or single 1-1/2" holes on sides; 1/2” Shank diameter eyebolt installed. This eyebolt is not the weak bent-wire style but rather the solid forged style that will not bend or “open” under force.

The replaceable mirrors are available in two (2) materials:
1. PETG: This is a highly reflective material. In order to protect the PETG mirror, we provide (2) Polycarbonate covers as a standard feature.
2. Polished Stainless Steel: Unbreakable. Available on special order. Please call us for pricing.

Mirror Information:

•Each mirror is recessed into the body for added safety.

•To limit the amount of flex a mirror can “see”, we leave as much of the housing as possible behind the mirror to gain further part strength and reduce mirror flex.

•The mirrors on all Looky Lou product lines are easily replaceable and interchange from one material to another. To simplify ordering of replacement mirrors, we write the material of construction on the back of each mirror.

•Regarding contact with water: We have contacted every manufacturer of mirrored plastic, and every one of them recommends that contact with water be restricted. It doesn’t make any difference whether it is Acrylic or Polycarb; the mirrored backing on all plastic mirrors (no matter the manufacturer) will gradually break down over time when exposed to water. The more water it is exposed to, the faster the degradation. A brief shower from a garden hose every couple of weeks does not produce nearly the same degradation that total immersion does. We have seen noticeable degradation in (4) weeks with total immersion in salt water using our standard “unsealed” mirrors. This is not a mirror quality issue. It merely reflects (pardon the pun!) the current state of plastic mirror manufacturing.

Hardware Information

All eyebolts used in our Wildlife Toy Box products are machine-grade, zinc-plated steel for durability and strength.

If stainless steel is required for your facility or application, please contact our sales team for availability and custom options.

Did You Know?

When you purchase a product from us that includes a clear plastic, that material is almost always Polycarbonate. There are other clear plastics, why use this one? 

Mostly because it is very strong. This is the same material used on vehicle headlights, motorcycle windshields and eyeglasses. A form of Polycarbonate is used in bullet-proof glass. 

Our optically clear feeders are fabricated using this amazing material to minimize fractures or splintering. 

Our mirrored products also use a clear Polycarbonate protective sheet in front of a PETG Plastic Mirror. The PETG material is another very impact-resistant material. We have a short video of the testing of this material if you’d care to see it. Just ask.
