feeding bag

Portable animal trough

A feeding bag is a bag of feed attached to a horse's or other animal's head, allowing it to eat while standing or working.

The bag hangs from straps around the ears, positioning food at the muzzle.

Also called a nosebag.

Figuratively, to put on the feedbag or strap on the feedbag means to sit down for a meal.
