little blue buckets and baling twine here.  Would love some hook on holders tho, as the buckets bend out of shape using string.

One size never fits all     i would say that even though i use 3 gall buckets i have to fill them twice per day (by  hoses ) so little blue buckets wouldn't last long

We lamb indoors and check the ewes every two hours so it's very unusual not to see early signs of lambing and we pen them in a mothering up pen with a bucket but remove it when the pushing gets serious.  We use the small buckets too but put them in the front corner of the pen - they normally lamb at the back of the pen where they feel more secure. We try to be present for every lambing but sometimes the old ewes surprise us.

Blue buckets half full.  Or old mineral lick tubs, again half full, as these are wider and less likely to get knocked over.  Water changed twice a day as it always gets food or hay crumbs in it.

its not a great picture but you can kind of make out what we do
