Auto waterer in brooders

[UmbraVulpis]

Depending on the way your brooder is set up you could try the one gallon version of the non-drowning chick waterer or the 2 liter version of the pop bottle fountain .

Can you thread a PVC pipe through your cages? If so, put in some nipple waterers fed by a five gallon bucket, or even something bigger. The only difficulty is the bucket has to be higher than any of the nipples because it is a gravity fed system. The other option would be to feed the nippled pipes with a pressurized system with a regulator to reduce the pressure of the water source. Check out farmtek.com for examples of what I am taking about. Search for poultry supplies or poultry watering systems.

There are also kits to convert the 2litre coke bottles into "rabbit bottles" for more capasity

I have an auto watering system that uses pcv pipe and a float device hooked to 5 gallon buckets

I'm going to do this one in our outdoor flight pen.
It won't cost much if it does not work.
