Secondary producers are animals that consume plants or even others animal and, therefore, are heterotrauph. It mean they cannot produce their own source of organic material, they muste aquire it from plants (herbivorous) or other animals (carnivorous). Plants and photosynthetic organisms are primary producers.

In a food chain its the second link its quite hard to explain but the plant is called the producer and the organism that eats the plant is a primary consumer and the organism that eats the other organism is called the secondary consumer. The organism that's at the top of the food chain is a predator this doesn't get eaten by anything else.
