#### **Usage**
Right-click the ground with a grain bin in hand to place it. On placement the grain bin will be closed, but can be opened by shift right-clicking the grain bin. Repeating this will close the bin once more.
**Shown:** Grain bins in a closed versus open state.
**Adding Grain** The bin will appear empty until grain is added; it can hold either [Sweet Feed](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/swequestrian-mod/page/sweet-feed) OR [Rose feed](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/swequestrian-mod/page/rose-feed), but cannot mix feed types.
Right-click a grain bin with an **open** bag of grain to empty servings into the bin. Each bag has 4 servings, and the grain bin can hold 12 total servings (3 full bags). Every 4 servings added increases the visible grain level.
**Scoops** To withdraw a serving of grain, right click the grain bin to receive a single scoop of the feed stored within it per click. This scoop can be directly fed to a horse, or put into a [grain feeder](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/swequestrian-mod/page/grain-feeder). You can withdraw up to 4 scoops per stack (the same servings as a bag). Right-clicking a grain bin with a scoop will also deposit the servings back into the container.
**Shown (L-R):** All 16 color and 8 wood variants of grain bins.

#### **Trivia**
It is intentional that grain scoops only stack up to 4 - so carrying around 'loose' scoops is not an alternative to bags (making sweet feed bags somewhat defunct). Realistically bags are much better contained to move around with, and can stack in higher numbers when not opened.
