I've been using these feeders for years and just ordered a couple more. They are durable and easy to clean and I love the fact they hang over fences.

Will not fit on panel fences or doors. Does not fit on barn master stall doors or panels. Use to store stuff in because too small of clearance to hang

This is a really great feeder for those situations where you have to move your horse to a different stall or pasture and you don't have to unscrew or unglue a bucket from a fence or stall! Without any glue, nails, screws or even hooks this fence feeder makes moving and transporting a breeze! It's very strong and durable and can be used for water or feed. I haven't noticed any wear to my fence feeder other than a little mud. The plastic makes cleaning very simple. The fun colors are very true to the pictures as well! It's definitely a great feeder to have!

I am actually using this in my cross ties to hold sweat scraper, brushes, shampoo, etc. It hangs level and is a very sturdy plastic so it should hold up well outside for a long time. Love it!

I ordered the 8qt, but I really needed the 12qt for my mare and her large face. It works well though. I do not have it nailed down, so she gets it off the fence easily, but has not destroyed it yet. Pretty durable for her not to break it in the cold weather! I would recommend the 12qt for a normal size horse and to either nail or screw it to the fence.

I purchased the smaller size to hang on a pipe corral. The feeder is too small to reach the next pipe so it doesn't have a backstop to keep it from spinning around and falling off the pipe. Luckily, there is plywood around the bottom of the corral so I just hung the feeder low. It attached to the pipe easily with some zip ties.

This is a great feed bucket. My mare likes to let me know when it's empty by throwing it off the rail and onto the concrete. It doesn't show the abuse. Very good quality.

I thought it would fit on a gate but the loops to hold it are to small and don't fit anything I can put it on. I got the little round feeders. I have the bigger ones and they work fine. So I don't use them at all

I have had this bucket for going on 5 years of regular use and it has held up fantastically. I am very pleased with the quality of this bucket even when its used by a rambunctious 4 year old.
I love them for shows as well, as they just hook over the stall boards. (and they are great for grooming supplies/boots!)

They come in handy when we are camping with our horses.

Bought this to keep turnout boots on the front of my horse's stall, not actually feed him out of it. Very strong, not flimsy plastic. Would definitely buy this again if the need arises.

this is a great bucket for outdoor feeding. it's much more efficient than slogging through the paddock and fending off hungry horses the way i used to when i used ground feeders. it also stays on the fence better than other models i have tried (i don't bother to secure it with screws because i like to clean them regularly), and the horses haven't removed it to kick around the paddock yet ;-) they also don't seem to spill as much feed.
the only suggestion i'd make is to drill some small holes in the bottom so water will drain out. the hooks do eventually crack, but this bucket can take a lot of abuse and usually lasts for years.

I love this product...was using a flat rubber pan before and once my horse was finished eating it became his and his neighbors toy....causing me to go looking every day!
This one stays put; I love it.
