I put out a feeder bucket about 2 weeks ago.It's a plastic 5 gallon bucket with a lid and a 2 inch PVC cut into the bottom along the side.we hunted it the other night and treed right off the bat.When I went to go check the bucket,something had chewed a hole in the lid about as big as a baseball.Anyone else ever had this problem?I know the coons have been hittin' it pretty hard,but it seems to me the 2 inch pipe should be enough.Anyone have any suggestions?

A coon will chew a hole in them...Was it a solid lid or the kind like oil comes in with a pour spout.
