  • Horizontal nipple drinker - Yellow (2 pack) Horizontal nipple drinker - Yellow (2 pack)

    Yellow Horizontal Nipple Drinker |Twin Pack

    Birds learn quickly how to use this system. Transform any standard bucket or PVC pipe into a poultry waterer. Nipple only releases water when activated and this results in better hygiene & less cleaning. Unlike traditional drinker nipples, these horizontally mounted nipples are spring-loaded so that they work without a gravitational pull. The action of the birds pecking wobbles the spring, which releases drops of water either into the bird's beak or collects into the moulded drip guard beneath the nipple. Easier cleaning! - The advantage of side-mounted drinking nipples is that the drinker can be placed on the ground or on a flat surface for cleaning and refilling etc. Supplied in a 2-pack with instructional header card.                                                                      Tips for training chooks onto nipples.

    Mini Cup Drinker

    10 reviews

    This drinker fits below a bucket or a container with a thick base. We recommend approx. 1 drinker per 2 to 3 chickens. (e.g. a flock of 6 hens will require approx. 2 to 3 lubing cups). The drinker works on a similar principle to nipple drinkers, although is designed for use specifically for poultry and game (not rabbits or mischievous parrots that like to chew). The device requires a low-pressure gravity feed supply via a header tank, drum or bucket. (no greater than 400mm of head). Alternatively, the cups can be attached directly to any container with a reasonably thick base so can be drilled and threaded. The drinker has a tapered thread, so will self tighten as threaded into your container.

If their only choice is to drink from that new shiny metal thingy hanging under the pipe or bucket, it will only take one thirsty bird to try it and show everybody elsewhere to get a drink. So just to be perfectly clear, to teach your birds to use the nipples, remember golden rule...Remove all other sources of water! When installing the new nipple system, simply gather your chooks around and show them by tapping the nipples with your fingers which cause water to leak. That will get their attention and they learn very quickly. We recommend 1-3 chooks per nipple.

  • Mini Cup Drinker and Elbow

    Mini Cup Drinker + Elbow

    7 reviews

    This drinker fits directly into the side of a bucket or tank. We recommend approx. 1 drinker per 2 to 3 chickens. (e.g. a flock of 6 hens will require approx. 2 to 3 lubing cups). The drinker works on a similar principle to nipple drinkers, although is designed for use specifically for poultry and game (not rabbits or parrots that chew). The device requires a low-pressure gravity feed supply via a header tank, drum or bucket. (no greater than 400mm of head).  The elbow is designed to fit the drinker directly into the side of your own water supply bucket or tank.

    Easy to fill. If you've expanded your flock, you can make sure there's plenty of water for everyone with the new Eglu Cube Drinker. The large openings make it easy for chickens with even the most extravagant bouffant to take a refreshing drink, and even easier for you to refill.  The Cube Drinker works well as a waterer for large breed rabbits like Rex and Flemish Giants. You can even refill the Drinker with a hose pipe through the run without having to reach inside. Made of hygienic, easy to clean plastic, the New Eglu Cube Drinker attaches to your run with strong steel clips. The capacity of the Cube drinker is 4 litres when placed on a vertical run panel such as the Eglu Cube or Walk in Run, and 3.1 litres when placed on an angled run panel such as the Eglu go. Dimensions: 17cm high by 18cm wide by 35 cm long Also fits the Walk-In Run and Runs for the Original Eglu Cube Mk1, Eglu Go and Eglu Go UP.

    We are no longer stocking the Eglu Go Drinker. Please check out the Cube Drinker. The Eglu Go comes with a drinker as standard. These drinkers clip securely on the run. Depending on the number of chickens in the flock it may be necessary to purchase additional drinkers. It is also worth holding spares for when it is extremely hot or cold. Works well as a rabbit drinker for large breed rabbits like Standard Rex and Flemish Giants.

Rooster with 18L bucket drinker

Selecting the right drinker/s for your chickens and poultry area is worth doing. Using purpose-built poultry feeders and drinkers will save time, energy and money in the long run and keep your chooks happy and healthy. Expecting your chooks to drink out of an old dirty bucket is not going to get the best production from your hens or make your daily chores a pleasure. Buckets of water 'green up' pretty quick and get easily tipped over. Having a reliable, fresh source of water available at all times is key to good health and good egg production. Chooks drink lots of water and they like it clean (just like you!) We have some great drinkers available.
