Cornish Cross broiler birds at 7 wks crowding around a watering bucket. Free ranged since 2 wks and foraging well out on pasture.

Comment by J Green on May 31, 2012 at 12:39am Just the use of screw in poultry water nipples....this is the one I used when they were chicks and they became quite attached to it and would by pass the 5 gal bucket with the same style delivery and go straight back to their little bucket. Silly birds!
I really love this way of watering as there is no waste, no dirty water and they seem to love pecking at the nipples.
