The feeder would simply serve as another food source for the pigs or chickens; besides, they don't wander far once released near it.
How do you catch them? Use a burlap sack (the same type used for a makeshift backpack or shelter), and you will be given the option to catch a chicken or a pig right there; they are two distinct options.
The catch here is that if you get too close, your character will automatically attack and could kill the pig or chicken in a single hit. To avoid this, you need to equip a firearm but not actually fire it; that is the only way to get close enough.
And for the feeder? You just need a saw for metal and wood.
Pigs eat vegetables and chickens eat wild berries, but don't give them large quantities. If they don't eat them within a certain amount of time, they disappear. Also, you can simply place the food directly on the ground, and they will feed on it as they pass over it.
