KEEPS WATER UNFROZEN – 100 watt heating element is controlled by a built-in thermostat. Turns on when ambient temperature is below 40°F and off at 60°F. (Note: Water does not get hot, or even lukewarm.) The heating element keeps water from freezing so poultry have access to a source of unfrozen water.

QUICK-FILL CAP – During extreme cold, the insulated lid may freeze to the basin. To ensure water can be added even during inclement weather, we've added a hinged cap to the lid which is just the right size for a hose or watering can. Refill without removing the lid!

WATER STAYS CLEAN – Nipple drinkers are popular for good reason—water stays clean and fresh until consumed. Birds drink from (3) recessed nipples. Over time, dirt and debris may clog a nipple, causing it to slowly leak. (3) spare nipples are provided with the unit. (Read tips below for training birds new to nipple waterers.)

SUITABLE FOR HANGING – Heavy-duty handle can be used for carrying and hanging. Tip: Place a rubber pan underneath a hanging waterer. Rubber doesn’t freeze (or crack!) when ice builds up, so the coop floor stays dry. It also helps to catch drips that hens or roosters might flick off the nipples and onto the bedding.

3-GALLON CAPACITY – Suitable for up to 35 adult chickens. Ducks trained to horizontal nipples can drink from this waterer, although we recommend having another source of water nearby so they can submerge their heads.

4-SEASON WATERER – 16 ft. electrical cord DETACHES for non-winter use. Dimensions: 14"H x 13"W x 13"D.
