How to Use
It's common for a bead of water to hang off the nipple and occasionally drip. This is common with all types of poultry nipples. When testing this waterer, the drips were not bothersome to neither our birds nor us.

Over the course of 15 years, I have tried all sorts of waterers and this is by far the best for keeping the flock’s water clean. I have been using these 3-gallon capacity buckets for two years. They are particularly great during the hot months. I don’t have to worry about the flock running out of water because they tilted the waterer and emptied the content, or soiled the water. I especially love that you can set the bucket on a flat surface while refilling. I plan on adding one or two more for this season. Makes my chicken chores that much easier.

We have tried just about every waterer available and this is the best!

My old Premier 1 bucket waterer was great. Had it for probably 10 years. When it started leaking, I bought replacement nipples. Still leaked. Bought a brand new waterer. It leaked. Now I am returning and trying to find another waterer for my flock.

I wish I would have purchased this drinker years ago. My chickens love it! It’s very easy to fill!

Love this water bucket! It stays clean and we only have to fill it once a week for our chicks. Just need to make a rain barrel attachment for the lid and bam!
