Bell-Matic Poultry Waterer

The media could not be loaded. This has got to be the best solution for watering chickens and turkeys. When I installed mine, I put sand in the base, but didn't fill it completely. The first time I attempted to clean it, I tilted it to dump the water. This caused the sand in the container to shift unevenly. We didn't realize the drinker wasn't level until the next morning when we found it dry. So I filled the bottom unit to the top with sand, re-hung it and it's been good since. Also, the 1/4in PVC hose wasn't long enough for my application so, I'm going to order a longer hose.Originally, we wanted to order a pressure reducer since it requires 4-6 lbs of pressure. We set up a bucket of water with a siphon to the drinker while shopping for the correct pressure reducer. However, the siphon works perfectly and we see no reason to worry about changing it. I have a shutoff valve on the water bucket placed slightly higher than the bell-matic for the siphon. Works like a champ!

I have around 50 Chickens and Guineas in my Chicken Coop. After trying to rely on a bird sitter to come fed and water my birds when I was at work, I came across this product and bought it. It is a game changer. I mounted it underneath a Blue 55 Gallon Barrel which sits on a wooden stand. Now I only have to water my birds every two weeks instead of several times a day. I just fill up the barrel and check on it from time to time. I love it! I recommend this product.

This thing is awesome! I have chicken and pheasants. Ended up getting this for my pheasants and it’s been the GREASTEST addition to my pin. I WILL be ordering another one for my chickens. EVERYONE do yourself a favor and stop buying the other garbage out there. This unit has given me ZERO issues compared to others style of water feeders. It takes a little more set up but WORTH it. Save your money and buy this unit and it will be your last one. GUARANTEE!

We have been using this waterer for over a year and it has held up great. Sometimes the little black hose gets clogged and but other than that it is easy to use. We will be purchasing more for our other chicken tractors.

Easy to install, but hard to configure proper water level. Mine also came with faulty O-rings (all 3), and crap installation parts, so I had to make a trip to the hardware store to find smaller ones. At any given time they will stop working or spring a leak. I almost lost an entire coup full because it stopped working on a HOT day. Do not risk it.

This is working exactly as we needed. We set it up below a raised platform and connects to a 50 gallon tank above. Fresh water now for a month!

Hooked this to a 55 gallon drum and it works like a charm for chickens. Water lasts a long time and this hasn't missed a beat. I use my hose once a week to wash debris out of the trough and that's it.

Took a little time to get the perfect amount of water set up but worked great after that.
