This is also known as "ad lib" feeding or "free feeding." Food is available at all times, as much as the pet wants, whenever the pet wants. Most lactating pets are fed by the free choice method, and it is generally the method of choice for feeding most cats. This method is most appropriate when feeding dry food which will not spoil if left out. Some dogs and cats, however, will overeat with this method, so two associated diseases must be considered: a) Obesity. ... b) Developmental Bone Diseases. ... 3, record 1, English, - free%20choice%20feeding

Self-feeding [of pigs] saves labor and usually produces more rapid and economical gains than does hand feeding. [However] the use of the self-feeders [sometimes] decreases the effect of good pasture because the appetites of the pigs are satisfied while they are at the feeders. 1, record 2, English, - self%2Dfeeding
