If there's one thing every chicken owner in New Zealand knows, it's that chooks love to get right into their food and water. But this habit can turn into a health hazard when water becomes contaminated with droppings. For healthier chickens, providing clean, contaminant-free water is essential.
With the Lubing Cup Drinker Outlet, you can easily transform a water drum into a dedicated chicken hydration station! Say goodbye to water splashed all over the coop and hello to cleaner, safer drinking water for your flock.
This Dine-A-Chook Drinker Cup is the best way to ensure your chickens stay hydrated while keeping the coop dry. For optimal health, we recommend using a Lubing Drinker Cup or Lubing Nipple outlet.
