Diana1 Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Our neighbour says we need a metal, lockable container. Where can we get one? what do others use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 I use a plastic bin with a fitted lid .............Make sure there are no holes in the bottom and the food should be fine in it, as long as you keep it in the shed or garage. If you are storing food out doors you will need a metal bin with a lock to keep out rodents they love chook food....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Most equine horsey places will sell metal feed holders. Also found this on the internet, which looks interesting! Don't know how prices compare though: I've had my metal bins for donkeys years! http://www.solwayfeeders.com/ProductsResultsList1.asp?cat=49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 My chicken feed is in my summerhouse in the paper sack. No rats/mice in there as it was sturdily made by me and LSH!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 A large plastic box on wheels - with a lid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diana1 Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 Thanks for all your ideas. I've followed AnnieP's suggestion and bought a metal one from the web. It'll be good because we can leave is outside. When we go away it will be more convenient to leave it out for the neighbours to use (to feed the chickens you understand) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
