I just checked out the Higgins Premium Pet Foods website:

They specialize in bird feeds and feeds for small animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters etc. That would suggest that box cars would be used a fair bit to bring in bagged special grains/seeds and pellets as well as covered hoppers bringing in the bulk used grains and seeds - eg millet, wheat, etc.
