I hang mine due unlevel ground but must hang with chain on both ends of handle.

A travel bottle for liquids like shampoo and conditioner.

Hi guys,

After a few floods, got rid of my automatic waterer and got one of these. It's very good quality and nicely priced but be careful the cap is air tight; I suggest oiling the rubber seal frequently. Mine tends to expand and retract quite a bit and it doesn't take much for air to get in and empty out.

Recommended but keep an eye on it.

My sealing o ring fell off and I can not figure out how to put it back on. Does anyone have any pics of where it needs to be on the lid

Does this come apart from its base? My base has a crack but i can’t separate it?

Mine does but not easily. You could try aquarium sealant on the crack. Also at least one jb weld product is non-toxic.

My review of this waterer is not good. I even called the company to ask them why water just pours out of this. I followed their instructions closely but it still leaks. I wanted it to work so much but its a fail for me.
