3-Season Poultry Waterer
New! A top-fill waterer for the whole flock.
It’s an unheated version of our best-in-class Heated Poultry Waterer, but with drinking cups instead of horizontal nipples. Birds can drink deeply (rather than small sips) to stay hydrated on hot days and to dip and cool their wattles.
Key Features:
- 3 gallon capacity
- Translucent basin for at-a-glance water level checks
- Bowl drinkers automatically fill cups. Valve stops water flow once full.
- Secure, interlocking lid with handle for carrying and hanging
- Hinged quick-fill cap is just the right size for a garden hose. Refill without removing the lid!
Instructions/Diagrams:
Benefits
- Lid is secured to the base via unique interlocking tabs
- Integrated lid handle can be used for both carrying and hanging
- Conical lid shape to prevent birds from perching and soiling waterer
- Quick-fill cap is just the right size for a garden hose or watering can
- BPA free plastic
- Waterfowl (e.g. ducks) can use this waterer, though it’s important to have another water source nearby (e.g. a rubber pan) so they can submerge their heads
Specs
- Capacity: 3 gal (12 qt)
- Bucket dimensions: 9"H, 13" dia.
- Overall height: 14"H
- Suited for: Up to 35 adult birds
- Includes: (6) yellow Bowl Drinkers; (3) for basin + (3) spares
Note: The exact number of birds to water is difficult to determine as there are many factors that influence intake; salt and protein levels in the diet, humidity, temperature, productivity (growth or egg production) and the birds ability to process feed and water.

I love the idea of this waterer. It is great to refill and I like that I can see the waterline just by walking up to it. I like the cups and my girls really enjoy them also. However, the cups leak awfully, and I have to go out and refill the container often. I did not overtighten the screws but they just leaked. The rubber washer is too big and the screws will just click if you try to tighten it up a little bit to stop the leak. I switched out the cups with the extras that was sent, but they started leaking not long after putting them in. I also made sure the container was level, no luck there either.
I cannot recommend this product. I do like the idea, but until the issue with the leaks are fixed I would not buy again.

I have now had 2 cups leak. Nice to have extras, but hopefully won’t run out of them.

Leaks, don’t buy.

Almost perfect... but it has a few flaws.
- The cups leak. They send you extras but it doesn’t seem to matter which cup you use, one is always unscrewed on its own and leaking. They also won’t screw in tight.
- The lid doesn’t lock in, so many times after I filled it, the top separated from the bottom while I was carrying and all the water spilled. Make sure you’re careful with it.
- I do not think it holds 3 gallons of water. I believe it’s closer to 2.

Good drinker for stubborn chickens.
