Hi, can anyone suggest where I can get plastic measures for my supplements? I use Stubbs size scoops for the hard feed but feed x3 different supplements (balancer etc - about 250g of each - I will be weighing them properly) and I can't find any suitable plastic scoops or cups. I have tried to use plastic camping cups, but need to buy something else as these were poor quality. Any ideas would be great. Thanks.
 
Weigh out 250gms then find yourself some item it fits in.
Different things weigh out at different volumes, so a kilo of feathers will need numerous scoops as opposed to kilo of lead that would probably only use one scoop.
Weigh each one and see how much is there, THEN find something to fit it in.
 
With our dog food I weighed out the right ammount and used a milk bottle. Screw the lid on, use the handle and cut the bottom off so you can scoop with it. You can cut it right to size and it works ok although it's always hidden as it looks really home made!
 
Thanks everyone, I always weigh anyway but I have people feed for me so using Exact scoops would be great. Weird that no one makes standardised scoops for supplements when everyone has standardised scoops or hard feed :)'I think I will try milk bottles as I can cut it to exact size based on weight of each supplement.

Thank you all
 
I recently bought a mini Tub Trug for a £1 from local saddlery and they hold exactly 250g of my Spillers Original balancer. They are soooooo cute to boot. Sad really but I am easily pleased.
