Little GiantHeavy Duty Rubber Tub | Durable Rubber Feed Pan | Indoor & Outdoor Use | Rubber Feed Bucket | 15 Gallons

These are so thick and durable. Easy to clean and my pigs did not destroy these. You can use these for ducks, pigs, cows etc.Great product, perfect size. I will definitely be ordering more of these when I need them.

Exactly as advertised. Durable material but still flexible.

They have a strong smell initially, but that dissipates. We got two of the largest size for our 5 ducks. They are very easy to break ice out of and easy to clean, just rinse with some water. The ducks seem to be happy with them, we tilted them a little for the ducks to more easily get in and out.

Good bowl

Just what I needed. Good product

No more broken dishes from water freezing outside. I have large pans like this I used for poultry years back that smelled at first too. I needed some for outdoor cats because I don't have electricity outside and water dishes freeze in winter. I bought 2 dishes and the first thing I did was soak them in my sink with hot water, a tablespoon of dish soap and a couple cups of vinegar for several hours. Then I scrubbed them again with more dish soap and let them air out over night. It has gotten rid of most of the smell just from doing that. They are made from recycled tires so they are tough and you can beat the ice out them without them breaking. I keep changing them out everyday and wash and let the other air out in my house over night. If you do this enough eventually all the smell with go away though it's not that bad anymore. If you use them long enough the smell completely disappears. You could also soak and wash them and put them outside for a few week to air out if it bothers you that much. Just keep scrubbing them with dish soap and vinegar every so often. My cats drank from them the first day.

"Original review below"After more than a year of using this, the smell went away after about a month. We initially purchased these because our dogs tags were bumping her metal bowl and freaking her out, and this does not happen with these bowls. Now, we noticed on the one we use for water, the bowl is, "peeling" for want of a better word. Both bowls are washed on average about every two weeks with dawn and warm water. In the one we use for water however, we have noticed the bottom is coming up, kind of floating upwards. At first I thought it might be some type of mold, since we have well water. But it does not occur in any of the other dogs bowls, and we have 3 dogs all with their own bowls. Our dogs teeth are perfect, she has no diseases or anything that might get in the water and cause this, nor are the bowls outside where mosquitoes could lay eggs in the water. I scrubbed it out, and it went away. Now, after several weeks, its back.This bowl literally reeks of recycled truck tires. The smell when we opened the package was extremely over powering, and 24 hours later, soaked in dawn, scrubbed with Awesome and left in the sun for 8 hours, the smell is the same. Our dog will not go near it. We'll leave it outside for a few days but I don't think the smell is going to change.

I love these rubber pans. I use 6 of them as chicken waterers in my individual rooster pens in the winter time. They are positioned in a corner of the pen up on a block of wood to keep most of the straw and shavings out the water. When the water in a pan freezes I just bang the pan a couple of times on the fence beside the barn to pop out the block of ice. I never fear cracking, deforming, or otherwise damaging the pan. Another good thing is that the pans are heavy enough that the chickens aren't constantly knocking them over. The only down side with these pans is that sometimes the birds dangle their wattles or beards in the water which can lead to a bit of frost bite. Other watering options though fail on this point as well, or just aren't practical in an unheated barn in the winter.I also use 6 of these pans as feeders in my individual rooster pans. They are indestructible and easy to clean.
