“ Even with hose clamps provided and pipe clamps purchased this bursts and sprays our yard daily. We even purchased the expensive pressure reducing valve which still doesn't help. ” --shanshan51
“ This is my favorite water for young poultry and chicks once they are beyond the small, safe waterers. It's just common sense that you have to set it on a level spot. I know it will splash when you turn it over, I just wait until I am outside to turn it over and you learn to put your hand on the bottom to turn it. To me that's just the way it is. ” --Jackandwhitey
“ If these waterers aren't fairly level they leak -- that's pretty obvious. We don't have a lot of flat level spots in our chicken areas, so decided to hang our waterers and let gravity level them for us. But any clip a person might hang the waterers from could easily slide to one side of the waterer is jostled, then the waterer would not be level and the water would leak.

“ I bought and installed several of these at one time and they all leaked right away. I removed one and took it back to the feed store where I bought it to ask for advice, and was told I wasn't the only person with that problem to come in that very day. Though they had told the previous customer to buy replacement parts online, they exchanged my faulty fount for a new one. I installed the...” --LeslieDJoyce
“ I bought the Do-It-Yourself kit that includes: three nipples, hanging wires, the drill bit, instruction sheet and DVD with even more info. Within an hour of receiving my kit, i had a clean 5-gallon bucket hung in the coop with 2 nipples installed on the bottom (saving the other one to make another container) and the chickens were curiously pecking at the nipple fixtures and quickly figuring...” --red hen in the rain
