How do you get water and food to your chickens? (Share your storys!)

There are a few reasons that your vertical nipples leak. One could be minerals in the water that get on the seat hold the valve open. Another is that there are a lot of cheap knockoffs. ( you get what you pay for ) The vertical nipples depend on gravity to close and seal. If you are slightly off on the angle the weight hangs up.
The horizontal nipples are spring loaded and seal with an O ring.
They don't leak and in my opinion are the best thing since they invented the wheel!
Yes I do sell these!!!! No I am not offended if something else works for you thats great!!!!







 
We're all too busy to spend every day cleaning out soggy chicken feeders and mucky chicken drinkers (from dirt and manure!).

We were so tired of the hanging style that constantly got dirty and allowed so much feed to get wasted due to our messy chickens who like to scratch feed all over the place, as well as wild birds who thought we put the feed out just for them!!

... So we decided to make our own! Our humble Aussie invention has been hugely popular in Australia and we're now sending these all over the world. These chicken feeders and drinkers have been designed in-house by Brad at Royal Rooster (small family owned chicken coop business in South Australia). If you have any questions, please just let us know!





 
These all looks so nice and professional. Mine just have an old dog food autofeeder for feed in their coop and a waterer with a bucket over the top so they don't poop in their own water.

Do they sleep inside a closed coop? Do they water in there? There wouldn't be enough room in our coop for this but we plan to use it for their run. Forgive me if this is a naive question, I'm new at this.

I built one like this for mine but I don't think they are using it. Am worried about not leaving the other waterers out there because I have not seen the first one using the bucket one yet. I keep showing them but don't think it's being used. They watch me like crazy when I am showing them and they have used the nipple waterers before to on little bottle ones. The chicks are 3 months old.
