Horizontal Side Mount Chicken Watering Nipples, 24 pack

Low price alert! Watering nipples are one of the best upgrades to a traditional chicken waterer. They're mess-free, so you'll spend far less time cleaning and scrubbing out poopy, dirty waterers, and more time enjoying your flock. Screw these nipples into the container of your choice, like 5-gallon plastic buckets or a PVC pipe. But there are other nipples on the market see Key Product Features why ours are the best. What sets these apart from vertical nipples: they don't drip(!), and, because no water is stored in the nipple unit even when your bucket or drinker is full of water, they won't freeze during the winter provided you're heating your water supply. Installation instructions: Use an 11/32" drill bit to drill holes in your preferred bucket or pipe, a minimum of six inches apart from one another. Note: The manufacturer recommends screwing the nipples in only 80% of the way. The flange does not need to be secured flush with the bucket. Not suitable for week old chicks due to high density plastic.
