4 Reasons Why You Need Chicken Water Cups
1.ZenxyHoC water cups allow chicken keepers to design their own automatic or gravity-fed poultry watering systems.
Whether you have a flock of two or 20, supplying your chickens with ample, easily accessib fresh water is key to their well-being. But constantly keeping an eye on waterer, refilling it and changing the water could be the work that takes you lots of time and effort. In this case, the automatic chicken waterer will provide your chicken with a steady flow of clean water throughout the day even when you are not around.
2.They help to conserve water. Every time a chicken bumps into a standard waterer the water gets spilled and wasted. If you are metered for water this can significantly increase the cost of your water bill. Also in many areas water can be rationed in the summer months so using cups makes more sense.
3.Using water cups also helps to keep the drinking water clean. Chickens love to scratch in the dirt and this can kick up dust, straw and poop into regular waterers. Cups on the other hand are a smaller target to hit and they are also elevated. This means that the muck cannot be scratched up into them and helps to keep the water clean (which is very important).
4.Also they are very easy to install as long as you have a suitable bucket.
Chicken Water Cups Explained
How do I get my chickens to drink from a water cup?
If your chickens are new to the concept of pecking rewards (water), then they may need some time to train. It may take a few weeks to train your chickens, so in order for your flock to be able to drink more easily, you should give them automatic chicken waterer cups so they don’t get dehydrated. Persuading your hens to drink from a cup should not be a problem, as they are naturally curious and will voluntarily taste the water.
How do chicken water cups work?
When the water level in the cup drops, the valve opens and water pours in. This water raises the float until it blocks the water hole and the water is automatically shut off.
How many water cups do I need?
You should look to use 1 cup for every 3 chickens in your flock.
A good way to check if you have enough cups is to watch your chickens. If they are constantly crowding around the cups then you should add an extra cup or two.
“Ease of use” doesn’t just apply to the humans refilling and cleaning the chicken waterer—think about which dispensers will be easiest for your chickens to use. While some birds may easily learn how to drink water from a nipple, others may prefer a cup.

2.Just remember to keep the cups elevated from the coop floor to prevent your hens from scratching dirt and debris into the cups.
