There are plenty of chicken chores you can't avoid.
Refilling a tiny waterer seventeen times a day doesn't need to be one of them.
The Miller Little Giant Heavy Duty Plastic Poultry Waterer gives you a simple gravity-fed watering setup in your choice of 3, 5, or 7-gallon capacity. The translucent plastic makes it easy to see how much water is left, while the heavy-duty construction won't rust or dent like metal can.
Pick the size that works for your flock, fill it up, and cross one more chicken chore off the list.
At least until they get it dirty.
They're still chickens.
Not every flock needs the same amount of water, which is why this waterer comes in three sizes.
Choose from 3, 5, or 7 gallons depending on your flock size, setup, weather, and how frequently you want to refill.
The translucent tank lets you check the water level without opening anything or trying to remember when you filled it last.
Because “I think there's probably enough water in there” is not a watering system.
The heavy-duty plastic construction won't rust or dent, making this a practical alternative to traditional metal poultry waterers.
A vacuum-sealing O-ring and gravity-fed design maintain water in the drinking tray as your flock uses it. The integrated handle makes the waterer easier to carry and position when it's time to fill, clean, or move it.
Simple.
Which is exactly what a chicken waterer should be.
Fill the tank with fresh, clean water and make sure the O-ring is clean, properly positioned, and sealing correctly.
Place the waterer on a stable, level surface where your flock can comfortably reach the drinking tray. Check the water level regularly and refill as needed.
Keep the O-ring and sealing surfaces clean. A damaged, dirty, or improperly seated seal can interfere with the vacuum the waterer needs to work properly.
Check your flock's water every day and clean the waterer whenever you see dirt, droppings, slime, feed, bedding, or other contamination.
Wash with mild soap and water, scrub areas where residue collects, and rinse thoroughly before refilling with fresh water.
Inspect the tank, base, handle, and O-ring regularly. Replace worn seals and retire the waterer if the plastic becomes cracked or damaged.
And yes, they will probably get something disgusting in the freshly cleaned water.
It's one of their gifts.
