Goose Waterer

[happybooker1]

i have several of the homemade jugs with the large cut-out hole. Does anyone make a commercial duck/goose waterer??

Just use a 3-5 gallon bucket. Deep enough for them to submerge their heads and too tall to climb into. Free from the grocery store bakery department.

Uggh, I wish I could use a bucket with mine. I put out five gallon buckets and they climb up into them and tip them over. Silly thing is they'll do this mere feet away from their pool!!!

This might sound crazy, but my favorite way to offer water is in an old water table - you know the kind that kids play in?? The geese are tall enough to reach the water and dip their beaks in, but it's too high off the ground for them to climb onto, so the water stays so much cleaner! And it's very easy to change the water as the table has a drain in the bottom.

That seems to work just fine. Oh, and by the way, those are some beautiful birds.
