I use gravity wagons. They are kept in the shed and I put tarps under the ones that sit under the leaks in the roof. I can unload from the wagons to the grinder to mix feed. The complete feed is also in a gravity wagon and I fill buckets to feed the cattle.
I also raise chickens.
I make darn sure there are no animal proteins of any kind in my chicken feed, since it all goes through the same grinder. It's not that easy to find to all-vegetarian chicken feed and I have had people try to sell me stuff that did indeed have some kind of animal protein in it. I always read the labels.
I also raise a few hogs. They get the same stuff as the cattle...corn and soybean meal.
The only thing that gets any animal proteins at all on this place is the dog....well and me
