In this video I go over how I went about installing automatic waterers in my big chicken tractor. These are made by Little Giant and I installed 4 total for this system. Each waterer is rated for up to 150 chickens & I will only have around 170-180 birds in the chicken tractor at a time. This should drastically help with my daily chores by not having to tote a water out 2 times a day every time.
Here are a list of supplies that I used for this project. I will provide affiliate links to the items I used. You will need to determine how many of each part you will need to make this work for your scenario. The PVC parts would be easiest to source from your local hardware store but I will link what I can find on Amazon as well in case you find that easier.
