Jamie
from Alaska sent me a photo of his new bucket waterer in action. He wrote:
I got the chicken nipples
yesterday. I immediately took a break at work and went out and
hooked them up. The chickens went right up to them & were
fighting over them! It was great! I sent you a picture of
them. Thanks for the great product! They only took a week
to get here first class, which is really fast for Alaska.

Meanwhile, Louisa pulled
out a stopwatch, then emailed to say:
I
just wanted to let you know that I received my kit on Friday. I
was so excited! Well today while I was at work my husband put the
chicken nipple on a water bottle. I put it the cage with my 6
week old chicks and I timed them to see how long it would take them to
figure it out. I was shocked, 1:38 seconds! Thanks for the
great idea.

David wrote in too:
Just
thought I would take the time to tell you that I love the Nipples but
my chickens love them more. My egg production increased slightly
and I save better than an hour and a half each day now that I have
eliminated the scrubbing of the water feeders. I am able to give
them fresh water daily.

Thanks for reporting in,
everybody! If you haven’t taken the plunge yet, our homemade chicken
waterer kits are
extremely affordable, and — as David says — your chickens will love
them even more than you do.
