I'm looking into building some auto waterers with the chicken nipples!!
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but do the nipple waterers have to have a tight lid to work correctly (not leak)??
I need to be able to fill the waterer with a hose or little pail - cannot carry/lift a full 5 gal bucket...
If it DOES need a lid, can I just buy a lid with a gasket and put it on AFTER filling (w/o the water falling out the bottom in the meantime ???)
Thanks!
