Show Me Your Feeders and Waterers

[LapisLazuli]

I'm deciding which feeder and waterer to get and would like to see some setups.

For what type of poultry? How old?

 

[LapisLazuli]

Adult. Any type of poultry (specify in your post).

I have a Ratproof Feeder, which I love. My waterer is nothing special, just a cheapie from TS.

 

[chickenlittle21]

Adult.

I recommend this waterer and this feeder.

After much tinkering and trying different set ups these are what work best for me:

I got really tired of hauling water in the warm season. I set up a long PVC pipe along the fence with a ninety degree turn into the chicken yard. I ran a hose from the house to the pipe with a timer on it that goes on for 15 minutes each morning at 6 am. Works beautifully. Fresh water every day pours into the pan under a shelter my son made to keep the hot sun off the water pan all day. I have to give chickens water in the chicken house in the winter (with a heater) because everything freezes heavily here.

I made this last week, very easy to install, cheap too. Last for long time.

We just use bowls. Prefer the rubber ones, but any appropriate sized ones work, even for say olds if they're with a hen.

We do have a cat waterer for the free roaming ones to try and cut down on birds drowning in the troughs
