Product Information
Full details
The ProStable Feed Bucket is an essential tool for livestock owners and equestrian enthusiasts who need a reliable, low-profile container for daily feeding and material mixing. It provides the key benefit of a durable, easy-to-clean design that stands up to rugged farm environments, though its shallow depth makes it less suitable for tasks requiring large-volume liquid storage or carrying bulky, lightweight items that might spill.

FAQs
What is the total capacity of this bucket?
This bucket has a 3-gallon capacity, ideal for standard daily feeds.
Is this bucket safe for food-grade supplements?
Yes, the bucket is designed for animal feed, though it should be cleaned thoroughly if changing between different supplements.
Can I leave this outside in freezing weather?
Yes, it is constructed from impact-resistant materials designed to withstand cold temperatures, but avoid dropping it while frozen to prevent cracking.
Does the bucket come with a lid?
No, this specific model is designed as an open-top container for easy access.
Can it be used to wash smaller animals?
Due to its 18cm depth, it is better suited for feed and material mixing rather than bathing tasks.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn residue stuck to the interior
Soak the bucket in warm water with mild detergent for 15 minutes before scrubbing with a non-abrasive sponge.
Handle feeling loose
Inspect the connection points for debris buildup and ensure the handle is properly seated in the molded slots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for the ProStable Feed Bucket; it is ready to use immediately. To maintain the structural integrity and cleanliness of the bucket, perform the following care steps:
- Routine Cleaning: Rinse with fresh water after each use. If supplements have hardened, use a soft-bristled brush to prevent scratching the interior surface.
- Periodic Inspection: Check the attachment points of the metal handle monthly to ensure there is no corrosion or weakening of the plastic rim.
- Storage: Store the bucket in a shaded area when not in use. While the material is durable, prolonged exposure to extreme UV rays over several years can degrade plastic polymers.
- Compatibility: Compatible with standard wall-mounted bucket holders that accommodate a 40cm diameter base.
