Ingredients

5 gallon
bucket
1
5 gallon
bucket lid
1
feed pan
large enough for the bucket to turn upside down
Instructions
Put the lid on the bucket.
Make sure your bucket fits upside down in the feed pan with at least 2 inches around the edge.
Leave the bucket upside down in the feed pan and mark on the bucket 1/2 inch below the top edge of the feed pan.
That way, when the water comes out, there will be 1/2 inch of space on the pan.
Take the bucket out of the feed pan and turn it right side up.
Drill three evenly spaced, 1/4 inch holes, in the bucket at the level where you marked the bucket.
