An electrified feeder assembly includes a hopper, an actuator assembly, a motor, and at least one power supply. The hopper is configured to hold a quantity of feed wherein the feed is gravity fed downward through a feed tube. The actuator assembly is coupled to the hopper and is configured to selectively disperse feed when powered by the power supply. The motor receives power from the power supply and selectively spins the actuator assembly at a selected speed to open and close the feed tube. The speed of rotation induces a centrifugal force which opens the feed tube by translating the position of a portion of the actuator assembly. The feed exits the hopper through the feed tube and is dispersed through contact with the rotating actuator assembly. The actuator assembly is partially and temporarily electrified when manipulated in a closed position.
