A game and pet feeder is formed by the steps of utilizing PVC pipe wherein an elongate cylinder of the pipe is utilized in conjunction with end caps. A first semi-cylindrical slot is directed perpendicularly to the axis of the cylindrical body whereupon heat is applied to a surface extending above the slot and thereafter upon softening of the PVC pipe, a rod is directed against the surface overlying the slot and presented interiorly to force a forward tip of the material overlying the slot to engage a rear wall of the tube. Subsequently, a plurality of securement apertures are directed overlying the mouth formed by the inward directing of the material and a series of apertures are drilled through a lower end cap, whereupon the end cap is secured either through adhesive or mechanical fastening to a lowermost end of the cylindrical body. Subsequently, the top lid is positioned upon an upper end of the cylindrical body with an aperture directed diametrically therethrough to receive a first cotter pin and a second aperture directed coaxially of the lid to receive a second cotter pin for enabling suspension of the game and pet feeder.

A method of forming a game and pet feeder comprising the steps of: providing an elongate, polymeric cylindrical body including a top end and a bottom end and arranging each end orthogonally to an elongate axis defined by the cylindrical body, and securing a bottom cap to the bottom end and a top cap

A method of forming a game and pet feeder comprising the steps of: providing an elongate, polymeric cylindrical body including a top end and a bottom end and arranging each end orthogonally to an elongate axis defined by the cylindrical body, and securing a bottom cap to the bottom end and a top cap to the top end, and forming a dispensing mouth with the cylindrical body adjacent the bottom end, and wherein the step of forming a dispensing mouth includes the steps of forming a semi-cylindrical slot directed orthogonally to the axis of the elongate body, and applying heat to a triangular segment overlying the slot until the segment is softened from a rigid to a semi-rigid segment, and forcibly directing a force member against an exterior surface of the segment and forcing the segment interiorly of the cylindrical body until the segment forms an apex and wherein the apex contacts an interior surface of the cylindrical body, and wherein the step of securing the bottom cap to the bottom end of the cylindrical body includes the step of forming a matrix of apertures through a bottom end surface of the bottom cap and subsequently securing the bottom cap to the bottom end of the cylindrical body, and wherein the step of securing the bottom cap to the bottom end of the cylindrical body includes the step of directing an elongate threaded member through a skirt of the bottom cap overlying the cylindrical body and further directing the threaded member through the cylindrical body adjacent the skirt to secure the cylindrical body and the bottom cap together, and wherein the threaded member is directed through the skirt of the bottom cap and the cylindrical body to provide a predetermined length of the threaded member extending exteriorly of the skirt and orthogonally relative to the axis of the cylindrical body and underlying the dispensing mouth.
