    Little Giant waterer's Little Black Cap PPF305

    BLC, they sure are available, for about $6.xx on the bay and elsewhere. Seems over the top for what it is. Disturbing how proprietary these are for their specific application. I'm hoping for something simply found elsewhere, Acre, very coincidental you mentioned 3D stuff. I just assembled...

    Little Giant waterer's Little Black Cap PPF305

    Hi all, I am looking for an alternate replacement cap that works as well as teh original on a Little Giant Waterer. The little black screw on cap that seals off the bottom while filling it, and otherwise is stored on a little threaded button made to hold it on the plastic container. Photo...

    Horizontal nipples - are they getting enough water??

    RoseMary, Different size HN's??? I never have seen any mention of different sized HNs. Hmm. Please tell me more, if you can direct me to the same kind you are using, I'd sure appreciate it. You cracked me up with your "keeling over" comment, and them being alive (duh). You are quite...

    Horizontal nipples - are they getting enough water??

    What's the heat lamp for? If you're hoping to keep them laying, you don't want to be using red lights. It's not about keeping them warm, it's about providing "daylight." A regular LED bulb would work, and has far less risk than a heat lamp of burning down the coop. RoseMary, here is a...

    Horizontal nipples - are they getting enough water??

    I'd sure like some opinions and advice on what I ought to do this winter. I'm not at all concerned anymore about melting the plastic of this waterer on the heated base, as it's only 150W max, and only for however long it's below freezing. It's #5 PP, which has a 320F melting point. We've only...
