Troy Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Hi all Can anyone tell us how high the superglug should be placed for Pekins and how high for Hybrids? And do all chickens 'catch on' to the idea of 'teats' ? Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperman Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Our hens haven't mastered the nipple feed superglug thing, and much prefer the original glugs. They know how to use it but struggle to get enough water, I think it needs to be high enough for them to be pecking from below rather than from the side. I think our girls are just a bit thick. Kev.

Phosphorus Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Mine are too, but I haven't really pushed it. Gave them a traditional drinker to get them to drink. I think you have to get them to stretch their necks as well for the Super Glug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Thanks for that I think we'll just get a galvanised one, Then I wont be wondering all day if they are getting enough water! Troy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
