A bowl is provided for use in a liquid supplement system for feeding livestock, in particular piglets. The system includes a source of liquid supplement and supply tubing for delivering liquid supplement from the source to a plurality of feeding stations. Each feeding station includes a valve in communication wit h an opening in the tubing, an upwardly facing bowl surrounding the valve and an upright actuator lever located within the bowl for opening and closing the valve to fill the bowl with liquid supplement. The bowl is arranged such that at least a porti on of a peripheral rim of each bowl extends upwardly substantially a height of a fre e end of the lever. The lever is thus not accidentally activated by livestock playing or sleeping against the rim of the bowl.
