    Automatic Nipple Waterer and Bulk Feed Bin

    Here is the bin i made and set up inside with my broilers. I filled it with 500lbs of feed i had the local mill make for me. This has made feeding the chickens much quicker and less of a hassle because i dont have to deal with the bags. Inputs welcome:) Garrett

    Automatic Nipple Waterer and Bulk Feed Bin

    Thanks for the input! Where I work, at a manufacturing plant, we can make just about anything out of metal. I custom made the SST tank to serve this purpose. I could have repurposed a tank from somewhere, but this is exactly how I wanted it, so I decided it was best to make my own. The whole...

    Question regarding height of automatic watering device

    Hi I just set the height of mine relative to how the chickens looked comfortable without stretching too much. I also have the feeder up in the air so they are required to stand up to eat. I also made a automatic nipple waterer, and Id love to see your set up!! Garrett

    Automatic Nipple Waterer and Bulk Feed Bin

    This is a view of the tank, and the union and the T. I only have one side of the T being used. The other side of the T has a Threaded Plug in it, so if I want to make the waterer bigger, I just unthread the plug and screw in another 5 foot pvc pipe with the nipples threaded into it already...

    Need Water Pressure Help with Nipple Feeders

    Hi I just completed my nipple watering system for my chickens. I have 5 nipples on it and a float to maintain water in the tank. I just hook a garden hose up to my tank and the float fills the tank and shuts off, then as the chickens drink, the water level drops and the float allows more water...
