Harris Farms1000304 Poultry Watering Cups, Pack of 2

Perfect for my 6 Barred Rock pullets. They weren't real sure what to make of it at first. I had to hit the yellow thing for the first 2 days, so they knew that water was there. On day 3, they went for the tiny bit of water, accidentally nudged the yellow thing and boom! After 2 weeks, they are all happily drinking from it and I am happily NOT changing their water every 2 hours from filth.

These are the perfect solution to providing water for my chickens. The gravity waterers leak if they do not hang level. They can get bumped and make a mess. If you don't hang them, the chickens kick litter and poo in them. I do not think that all my chickens used the nipple-type waterer (maybe they did, but I couldn't be certain). The watering cups replace the little nipple things. They fit in buckets with side holes or bottom holes. I've ordered another set.

This is more of a tip than a review. I could not find an adapter for standard pvc. Luckily I know by making shop-vac adapters pvc molds easily when heated. So I used 1/2” pvc caps drilled a 23/64 hole in each, then heated the hole with a lighter and lightly threaded it in to create an adapter.

I ordered these because so many reviews reported that they did not get the cups with the drinker. I did get the cups with the drinker, however my hens just didn't get the concept. So I bought the Rentacoop automatic drinker cups. See that review.

Using these watering cups has made watering the chickens so much easier. They cannot mess up the water in 5 minutes anymore.

Arrived on time and works as advertised. The Chickens love it!

I hope the chickens figure out how to use this. They were looking awfully Clueless...

They clog easily and my chickens still haven’t learned how to use them to get the water.
