How to Use a Dine-A-Chook Chicken Drinker 4 Litre with Two Lubing Cups

Using a Dine-A-Chook Drinker is as easy as:

1. Mount to timber or steel.
2. Remove the lid.
3. Fill the unit with fresh water.
4. Press down on the float to fill the Lubing Cup reservoirs.

We recommend rinsing the Lubing Cups with water whenever you refill the drinker reservoir and cleaning them every few months. This way, your Lubing Drinker Cups will last for years!

How to Mount the Chicken Waterer

• Fix the unit to timber or steel using the supplied mounting brackets and screws.
• Position the waterer so the smallest bird can access the water. The drinker should be around eye level for your chickens.
• Choose a shady position, as water heats up if exposed to the sun all day, and chickens prefer cool water.

Consider that the average hen can drink up to 500ml per day. Water consumption varies with age, breed, diet, and temperature. For adequate hydration, consider a second waterer if your flock exceeds four birds. Our exclusive Dine-A-Chook float ensures your chickens have water as long as there is water in the unit—no mess, no leaks.

How Long Will 4 Litres Last?

• 2 Chickens: One 4-litre drinker should last approximately four days. Check-in after three days.
• 6-8 Chickens: One 4-litre drinker will need daily checking.

For flocks larger than eight chickens, consider purchasing two or three drinkers. Ideally, place these around the coop or run in shady locations so chickens do not have to travel far for water.

Versatile Use

This chicken drinker is also suitable for:

• Turkeys
• Geese
• Ducks
• Large aviary birds like quail, pigeons, and budgies

Care and Maintenance

Ensure to rinse the Lubing Cup under running water weekly to maintain its condition, and clean it every few months. Instructions for cleaning a Lubing Cup are available here. With proper care, this cup will last many years.

Why Dine-A-Chook Stands Out

At Dine-A-Chook, we have a long history with chickens and understand the challenges backyard keepers face. Our products have been extensively tested in both Australia and New Zealand backyards to ensure they work effectively to make chicken keeping easier.

We prioritize good coop management. A clean, dry coop with uncontaminated feed and water is essential for poultry health. Our feeders and drinkers reduce waste, keep feed dry, and prevent spillage.

Dine-A-Chook products are made in Australia with quality you can trust, using genuine Lubing Drinker Outlets from Germany. Our products are built to last and come with an exclusive guarantee. Don’t run over them with a tractor, and you likely won’t need another feeder or drinker again!

As a family business close by, our customers are our top priority. Need help with an order? Want chicken-keeping advice? If you have a question about your flock, contact us!
