Has anyone heard from Neil the water nipple man??

[nuttyredhead]

I tried emailing him last week to buy a few more but I haven't heard back and his pm box is full, I am desperately needing some water nipples! Any idea where else I can get them?

FarmTek sells them, online, but the shipping charges are more than the nipples, so I'd get several to lesson the sting.

I purchased some on eBay. Ended up paying $28 for 12 with free shipping. Not sure if that's the best price around but I needed them fast due to a coop fire that destroyed my others. Got them in like 2 days.

If you want water cups, they are for sale on this site and ebay.

If you want water nipples, ebay is probably your best bet.

I got mine from qcsupply ($1.27 each) and I think shipping was pretty reasonable too. Here's the link: http://www.qcsupply.com/420011-push-in-style-nipple.html

I also bought 12 push in type from QC Supply, price was reasonable, plus I bought a feeder, and they threw in a pair of gloves free.

Are the cups really needed, do the nipples leak alot, or do the chickens waste alot of the water and wet the bedding ?

Sorry folks-

I have been very occupied the last two weeks.

Storms causing power outages and colapsed poultry and livestock buildings that we are working on repairing/replacing. The new building season is fast approaching and I have three unique poulty buildings to design along with two special hog barns. Oh yeah - there is also the feed research farm- poultry and beef barn to be designed (research facilities are a pain!

Then there are eight cookie cutter hog barns to get lined up for spring.

Plus the phone never stops ringing with "Hey Neil do you know anything about. . . ?

I hope to get caught up on the pressing things this weekend.
