Auto water tray fill.

[sgray136]

I am working on a bator and contemplating the incoporation of an auto-fill system for the water tray based on the pop bottle waterer for pets only smaller. The water tray could be maintained from the outside then without opening the bator. Does anyone have any suggestions.

A length of tubing and a squeeze bottle or even a length of tubing and a funnel has been used by many of us with homemade 'bators.

I drilled a hole in the side of my cooler-bator and used a kitchen funnel connected to a length of clear tubing (you can buy it by the foot at lowes or other hardware store). ran the tubing through the hole and into the water container in the bator.

Worked great!

You gals are making this way to easy. It is suppose to be complicated! Thanks.

I built an incubator and used a small plastic tube, like the ones you get on a fish pump, put it through the side into a small bowl on the bottom and I use a large syringe to push water into the bowl. The tube fits on the syrings great and I don't have to open the bator.
