A yellow builders bucket is just too small; almost worked but then the corner of a square pot split it. One obvious option is a water tank designed for the loft. Another would be a kiddie paddling pool. Main requirement is for a pot which is 16"x16" (40 cm x 40 cm). Any budget friendly suggestions, please? TIA Dave R I have one of these http://www.tannertrading.co.uk/buckets-tubs/feed-skip/ It would be good for what you need. Mike Thanks - something for feeding large hungry animals should probably have the capacity. Now to find the nearest farm supplier. -- AMD FX-6300 in GA-990X-Gaming SLI-CF running Windows 7 Pro x64 --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |

I would prefer a bit of extra room. -- AMD FX-6300 in GA-990X-Gaming SLI-CF running Windows 7 Pro x64 --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus |
