Red Gorilla Plas Medium Skip Blue

Red Gorilla Plas S2 Medium Feed Skip 20L – Blue

The S2 is the bigger of Red Gorilla's two Gorilla Plas feed skips: 20 litres in a bowl 48cm across and 17cm deep, against the 11 litre, 40cm S1. That extra width and depth is what makes it the yard skip rather than the pony skip — a full hard feed, a soaked beet ration or a chaff mix all sit in it without heaping.

It is made in the UK from Gorilla Plas, a recycled polymer Red Gorilla state is completely food and feed safe. The reason to choose it over a rubber skip is the surface: non-porous, so feed residue and moisture sit on it rather than soaking in, and it will not crack or split under the knocks a busy yard hands out.

Performance & Benefits

• 20 litre capacity in a bowl 48cm across and 17cm deep — nearly double the S1, in the same wide, low shape.
• Gorilla Plas recycled polymer that Red Gorilla state is completely food and feed safe.
• Non-porous surface, so dirt, bacteria and feed residue have far less to cling to than they do on rubber.
• Red Gorilla rate the impact resistance as superior to rubber and to rigid plastic, which is what it needs in a busy yard.
• Resistant to cracking and splitting, so it does not perish and go crumbly the way an old tyre-rubber skip does.
• Made in the UK, quality and stress tested by Red Gorilla.

Suitable For

• A full-size hard feed, soaked beet or a chaff-based ration for a horse.
• Busy yards and equestrian centres where skips get dropped, kicked and stacked daily.
• Watering, and storing grooming kit or bandages between uses.
• Anyone replacing rubber skips that have gone hard, split at the rim or started shedding.
• Still a feed skip and not a muck bucket — for skipping out and carrying, the Gorilla Tub Small 14L is the deep flexible tub, and for a pony-sized feed the Gorilla Plas S1 Small Feed Skip 11L is the right size.

How to Use

• Stand it flat to feed; the 48cm base is wide enough that a horse cannot easily nose it over.
• Lift and tip from the rim to empty rather than scraping out with a scoop.
• Rinse after each feed. The non-porous surface releases residue with water alone.
• Stack skips inside one another to store.
