1 Gallon Plastic Nesting Poultry Waterer Jar

Keeping a flock watered is a daily job, and a clear jar makes it quicker. The transparent polyethylene shows the water level from across the coop, so you know when to top off before the birds run dry.

Nesting-style lugs make the jar easy to attach to its base, and the low profile helps keep the waterer stable on the ground. It fits the Little Giant 1-Gallon Nesting Waterer Base, Item No. 780, which is sold separately.

The jar is made in the USA from plastic, and it's a straightforward piece of a poultry watering setup that's easy to keep clean.

Why a nesting jar suits a poultry setup

Open pans get scratched, kicked and fouled fast. A jar on a base holds a larger supply in one spot, so birds drink from a waterer instead of a shallow pan they can scratch through.

A clear jar makes the chore quick. You can see the level without lifting the jar, so refills happen before the water runs low. Small things like that add up over a season of daily chores.

At 8 inches across and 7.5 inches high, the jar has a small footprint. It fits a brooder, a run or a coop without taking up much floor. For a bigger flock, set out more than one waterer so birds don't crowd a single spot.

How to set up the jar

1. Attach the nesting-style lugs to the matching base, Item No. 780, sold separately.
2. Fill the jar with clean water and set it in place.
3. Check the level through the jar and refill before it runs low.

Good to know

• Keep the waterer out of direct sun. Sunlight warms clear water and can encourage algae.
• Scrub the jar and the base regularly, and rinse them well after cleaning.
• Keep a spare jar on hand so you can swap out a dirty one quickly.
• In cold weather, set the waterer out of the wind and consider a heated base so the water doesn't freeze.
