feedboxes

Livestock meal holders

Feedboxes is the plural of feedbox, a container holding food for animals—typically attached to a stall or fence where horses or livestock can eat.

The term appears in agricultural and equestrian contexts: The stable hand filled the feedboxes before dawn.

A feedbox keeps feed contained and accessible at a comfortable height for the animal.
