Abstract:
Methods of covering an animal feed product involve depositing in an open end of a container an animal feed. Placing a cover on an exposed surface of the feed at the open end of the container, where the cover includes a flowable coating arranged on one side of a flexible film and a rigid or semi-rigid layer bound to an opposite side of the film. The exposed surface of the feed comprises irregular surface structures due to feed components positioned at the exposed surface. A central portion of the flexible film of the placed cover conforms to the irregular surface structures at the exposed surface of the feed upon the flowable coating reaching a temperature of at least about 125° F.

Claim (Index 17):
The method of  claim 16 , wherein an outer circumference of the flexible film is substantially similar to an inner circumference of the open end of the container such that the flexible film contacts, or is proximate, a circumferential sidewall of the container upon placement of the cover on the exposed surface of the feed product.
