Where/how do you store your feed?

i store mine in the original bag inside of an old 12 gallon crock that sits in the hall right off of my kitchen. I used to store it in a metal can with straps to hold the lid shut inside my barn....different location/situation now.

No critter can't get ours. Feed and Seeds are stored in a bin on our deck. Deck is screened in and has a door to get on the deck. Our bin will hold all of the feed. The seeds are stored in empty cat litter containers.

I love the Vittels Vaults that I purchased from Amazon last year. I keep them under the tractor port next to my chicken yard. They protect from bugs, rodents, and humidity. The food definitely stays fresher. I keep three of these in assorted sizes for food, meal worms, and oyster shell. The large vv holds a 50lb sack of feed with no problem.
Prior to this I was keeping feed in the bag inside a heavy duty outdoor storage box. It stayed dry, but I had an ongoing problem with ants. I'm glad I bought the vittels vaults.

I use the small metal garbage can too. The handle comes up to secure the lid. It fits 50lb of food perfectly. It lives in an outside storage closet.

Ooooh I'll have to give those a look then! That sounds pretty ideal.
