Feeding Troughs (Feed Bunk) After getting the fence up, the next thing on my mind was food and shelter. What are good ways to feed the sheep?
I think it's obvious that anything that can hold feed can be used, including a cardboard box. But a box can get kicked around, gets wet and breaks easy, and it may get moved around; not a great choice, especially if you have five heads diving into the same box all at once.
So here are a couple options for you to consider. They're all fine choices and it really depends on your skill level, time, and resources.
1) Wooden trough (You build)
2) Stainless Steel (You build)
3) Plastic (Build or buy)
4) Galvanized (Purchase, quick and easy)
