Seems like a nice way to re-use an old 2-liter bottle for a few months, and swap out as necessary. Seems to stay fairly clean in the field and the chickens don't mind that I didn't pay extra for an all in one unit. It has been fairly windy here in NH and mine only blow over when almost empty. Seems well balanced to me.

Both of these products work great! Thank you very much.

Flimsy, not sturdy enough to support the bottle.

I think I should have gotten the smaller one for my chicks first waterer, but it works well enough. Make sure to raise it up on bricks or something else it will be full of bedding before you know it. But you can’t beat the price if you have a spare 2 liter bottle!

The last ones I bought lasted over 5 years, sun finally got to them.
