ABSTRACT:
A disposable feed and water dispenser comprises a recycleable PET container with a threaded neck and a recycleable tray suspended from the container. The tray has a roof with a hole therethrough that mates with the container neck threads and a platform parallel to and spaced below the roof. Seed flowing out the container neck is collected in a mound on the platform. The mound size is controlled by changing the distance between the end of the container neck and the tray platform, which is achieved by adjusting the amount of engagement of the container threads with the tray roof. The tray may be fabricated from a flat cruciform shaped blank of recyclable polyvinylchloride that is approximately folded into the tray or that is thermoformed to the desired size and configuration. The disposable feed and water dispenser may be hung from an overhead member by a pair of strips, one end of each of which is bent over 180 degrees and inserted between the container and a cup loosely fastened to the container.
