2 Gallon Double Wall Fount

Waterers are constructed of heavy gauge galvanized steel with rolled edges for safety. Features...
Pros: Easy to clean and to fill. Durablel
Love love love this waterer. After a solid year of use, it shows no signs of wear. Another reviewer says it leaks, but in my experience it only leaks if its on uneven ground. WAY better than the plastic ones that are almost impossible to flip over and refill without getting yourself soaked. (We have a heated one for winter, and it is beyond annoying!)
Pros: Easy to clean, works well
This is a very easy to clean waterer, and easy to drink from. It lasts for a long time, and I love it.

Pros: Would be great for ducks, as it leaks like crazy!
Cons: Constant drip
I tried one of these waterers in my brooder set-up for 26 Freedom Ranger meat chicks. Even though it was suspended from a secure support, the thing just wouldn't stop dispensing water - ultimately draining the whole thing by 24hrs - straight into my brooder! A new batch of pine shavings later, I replaced this with a Little Giant plastic waterer, a brand I know and use for my Black Java flock.

I tried several different installation configurations (on a level platform, hanging by rope, hanging by chain) but none seemed to provide the stability the seal required.

I did not use this for my chicks after the third try - it's out of here and in the outdoor run for the Java's as a supplemental waterer.

Had I any ducks, they'd be thrilled at the puddles forming around it! But alas, we're chickens only 'round here.....
