Ware Poultry Drinker w/ Legs

Don't waste your time, energy and money: I'm not sure why it is so difficult to find a sturdy, well-made poultry drinker for small flocks and here is yet another dud. In the listing I was delighted the hanger/handle featured a notch that would prevent the container from skewing sideways on the hook and also, retractable legs should one wish to make it a watering stand.

It might work on concrete for a time, but the legs are destined to snap in a short period of time. And forget about standing it in dirt, the way chickens scratch around it, the thing will tip over before a day has passed. The final nail in the coffin is once you get it hanging, half the water has leaked out and the rest slowly leaks out due to the poor design. Complete fail. … more
