A vehicle for displacing feed includes a frame with wheels having a plurality of elongate tread portions and grooves, a motor for moving the vehicle in a moving direction, and a material displacer to displace the material, when the vehicle moves in the moving direction, over the floor towards a first side with respect to said moving direction. At least a majority of the tread portions is arranged such that they extend, when in contact with the floor, in a direction that makes a sharp angle with the forward direction opposite said first side. Thus, diagonal tread portions are predominantly directed to one side to counteract a reaction force of the feed being displaced sidewardly by the vehicle.

A feeder for a horse or another animal includes a container with an open top end and a closed bottom end, a lid for closing the top end, a bottom opening proximate the lower end of at least one of a front and rear wall of the container, a gate normally closing the opening, a cable connecting the top of the gate to a winch, and a control assembly for periodically operating the winch to wind or unwind the cable on the winch to open the gate at predetermined times during the day permitting access to the feed, and for closing the gate after preselected intervals to prevent further access to the feed.

The hay feeder of the present invention includes a top bar having a first end and a second end, and a plurality of horizontally spaced vertical rods. Each vertical rod has an upper end and a lower end extending downward from the top bar. The hay feeder of the present invention also includes a bottom bar having a first end and a second end. The bottom bar attaches to the lower ends of the vertical rods. The hay feeder also includes an angle plate having a first edge and a second edge. The first edge is configured to be above the second edge such that the angle plate extends at a downward angle.

An animal feeder for the feeding of animals in a remote location. The trough of the feeder has a retractable cover controlled by an actuator that is programmable to open the trough to allow feeding and close the trough to prevent feeding over desired intervals.

A portable and collapsible modular calf housing system featuring at least one pen comprising a front panel and two side panels and optionally a rear panel forming a pen. The side panels include channels in which the front panel can slide vertically to adjust the height of a feeding pail attached thereto. The channels are disposed on either face of each side panel to enable a front panel from each one of adjacent pens to be joined to form a plurality of interconnected pens.

A mountable feed bucket suitable for securing to a fence rail, having a receptacle and affixation means for securing the mountable feed bucket to the fence rail. The receptacle includes one or more brackets forming a vacuous area being suitable for receiving the fence rail, with apertures for receiving affixation means. Further, a removable secondary mount is provided to facilitate affixation to other structures, such as stall walls and doors, bars or girders of portable horse stalls, and like structures. Methods for mounting feed buckets are also provided.

The disclosure provides a bowl with a freely adjustable height, comprising: a pedestal; a lifting support rod, whose one end is fixed on the pedestal; a bowl seat, which is fixed on the other end of the lifting support rod; a lifting locking piece, which has a fixing piece and an extrusion piece matched with each other, wherein the fixing piece has a fixing hole, the lifting support rod penetrates through the fixing hole and is partially located in the fixing hole, the extrusion piece exerts an action force to the fixing piece so as to fix the lifting support rod on the bowl seat, and the fixing piece is matched with and fixed on the bowl seat or arranged on the bowl seat; and a bowl body, which is arranged on the bowl seat. According to the disclosure, the height of the bowl may be adjusted freely.

Disclosed herein is an apparatus for feeding livestock, which suspends one or more round hay bales above the ground, preventing hay rot, at a height that enables large livestock to feed on the round hay bales while small or young livestock feed from the underside of the bale where they are better protected from the larger animals. The round hay bale feeder comprises a box frame; one or more baskets for supporting a round hay bale disposed within the box frame; a base comprising pipe skids, and a plurality of vertical supports that support the basket or baskets, which allow enough space for small or young animals to feed underneath the feeder; and one or more hinged and latched gates for accessing the feeder.

A pet treat holding device may comprise a head and a plurality of opposable arms. The plurality of opposable arms may be articulably attached to the head and movable between a first position and a second position. The arms may define a cavity configured to receive an end of an elongated treat such as a bully stick. The device may comprise a twist ring that threadedly engages the opposable arms and operates to secure the arms of the device around the inserted end of the elongated treat.
