After watching a handful of videos on YouTube and seeing the great reviews and recommendations of this product I decided to give it a try. I just want to start by saying that I’m so thankful of how safety is a priority of the company. Also it’s very easy to assemble and to clean. The chicks loved it and so do we. It’s a win-win for us!

Works great! Just the right size for my new batch of chicks and much better than the regular type of waterer that gets all dirty.

I bought two of these drinkers for my brooder. The chicks learned to use them within 30 seconds. Adjusting the height is excellent to keep up with their growth, and they can’t kick shavings or manure into their water. But one of them has developed a drip after less than two weeks of use. The other one still works fine.

We bought some chicken nipple drinkers for our small flock. They arrived quickly. We soon figured out how to assemble the nipples onto the canisters. They were easy to hang. Although they don’t hold a lot of water, they don’t make a mess or leak, and the birds adapted quickly to using them. Adding fresh water is easy since the lid has a flip-top built in. Very pleased!

I like the concept of teaching young, however it drips a lot causing wet bedding. Also S&H cost more than product.
