Tripod Poultry Drinker - 20L

This tripod drinker has 20 litre capacity.

We use these drinkers in our larger sheds at Durham Hens and they are strong stable and durable.

Hens drink between 1/4 and 1/3 of a litre of water per day so a 20 litre drinker would last 24 hens about 3 days.

Constructed of UV stabilised polypropylene and polyethylene they are designed to cope with the toughest conditions. These drinkers have a solid tripod base, the body is light but durable with a heavy duty carrying handle that is designed to cope with the loads encountered when filling and moving the body. They have a high capacity water pan, easily accessible to various kinds of birds including all sizes of poultry, game birds, ducks, geese and turkeys.

The water barrels on the tripod drinkers are easy to fill and as they are made of translucent plastic you can easily see the level of the water as you fill it and when you check to ensure your birds are never without water in the field. Filling the unit is done through the top of the tank – while the filling is taking place the spigot is sealed by a rubber key style bung. Once you place the tank onto the tripod you remove the bung, slacken of the carrying handle and let the pan fill – once it covers the outlet pipe you tighten up the carrying handle creating a vacuum that controls the release of water as your birds drink. These tripod drinkers are stable and operate perfectly on uneven ground – though it is always best to try and keep them on a level surface!
