Default Plastic sand scoop.

Today I went to our local farm and feed store, and found a plastic feed scoop that is exactly like the ones Garrett and kellyco sell for anywhere from $10-$15 and it only cost $4. Drill a series of 1/2" to 5/8" holes in the bottom and POW! you have the same scoop for a lot less. I used one of these for several years, and they hold up quite well.
