Poultry nipple with cup drinker is one of the modern ways of serving water to chickens without having to carry water around in buckets. The nipple drinking system is fully automated and is probably the most widely used chicken drinking system used by modern poultry farmers. There are different variants of nipple drinkers.
How Poultry Nipple with Cup Drinker Works
The water is delivered to nipple drinking pipes from a header tank on top of the chicken house. As the chickens need water they will peck at the nipple and a drop of water is released. It is a fantastic method of giving your chickens water. A well designed nipple will not drip or give too much water – this prevents the shavings getting wet – which can cause problems with the health of your chickens.
This product require some maintenance – but the work involved in maintaining a nipple drinking system is a lot less work than filling buckets or cleaning out automatic drinkers.
