A developer supply container is mountable to a developer receiving apparatus including a driving gear, and includes an inner body and an outer body configured and positioned to open and close an opening formed on a peripheral portion of the inner body; a developer feeding member provided in the inner body; a drive receiving member engageable with the driving gear for rotating the developer feeding member; and a regulating portion for regulating a mounting attitude of the container to prevent an engagement between the drive receiving member and the driving gear. Upon mounting the container, the drive receiving member is revolvable, with manual rotation of the outer body, in a setting direction around an axis of the outer body to a set position where the drive receiving member engages with the driving gear. The drive receiving member is loaded to retard the rotation thereof about the axis.
