8 liter Poultry Drinker with Legs

Product Overview

The 8 liter Poultry Drinker with Legs lifts the 8 kg barrel onto an 8 cm red stand, producing an elevated drinking station for large growing flocks. Printed markings show a 39 cm total height, 8 cm leg height, a 31.5 cm base and a unit weight of 410 grams with legs. The stand raises the tray clear of litter so drinking water stays clean despite heavy bird traffic around it.

Water in the translucent barrel printed with 8 kg markings feeds the red tray by gravity, and the four-leg frame keeps the full unit steady on compacted earth or slatted edge floors. At this size and height, the drinker suits birds that are too large for chick gear and too dependent on floor waterers for nipple lines. Packing is 80 pieces per carton, matching the floor 8 liter model. The 8 cm height is matched to birds that are already nearly full grown, so the unit slots neatly into the later weeks of grow-out without swapping equipment mid-cycle.

Key Features and Benefits

• 8 cm elevated tray - Keeps the water channel above scratching litter, which reduces algae and dirt in the tray.
• 8 kg barrel capacity - Printed barrel size matches the heavy water intake of large grow-out flocks.
• Tall 39 cm profile - The elevated height suits mature growers and larger poultry reaching up to drink.
• Gravity auto-level flow - The reservoir refills the tray automatically without valves, floats or power.
• Stable four-leg frame - Wide leg spacing supports a heavy barrel against bumps during feeding rushes.
• 80 pieces per carton - Practical carton weight for distributor handling and mixed container loading.

Materials and Quality

The stand is molded as a single red plastic unit with a tray ring and four flared leg bases, chosen because flared feet grip litter better than flat legs. The barrel neck is reinforced to carry the full 8 kg load, and the 8 kg printing is applied clearly on the white surface. Bright red stands against translucent barrels make the product easy to inspect at a glance. Each unit is tested for leg wobble and tray seating before packing. The flared feet are molded wider on this larger stand to spread the heavier barrel load across the litter surface. A wide base also limits rocking when large growers bump into the tray during peak feeding hours, keeping water level steady.

How to Use and Maintain

Set the stand on a level drained patch, fill the barrel and seat it into the tray, then confirm all legs sit flat. Refills happen by lifting the barrel out, which leaves the stand in place. Clean the tray channel weekly and rake bedding away from the legs so spilled water does not pool beneath. In commercial houses, move units during litter turning so droppings do not concentrate under the drinker. After heavy feeding rushes, glance under the tray to confirm no litter has been kicked into the channel, and remove debris quickly to keep the water clean. Rotate the unit during weekly litter checks so droppings do not pile directly underneath.

Applications

This elevated 8 liter drinker serves large broiler grow-out floors, medium layer houses and breeder farms where floor moisture is an ongoing concern. It also suits duck growers, since ducks slosh water backward and the elevated tray keeps most of the splash off their bedding.

Distributors order it as the mid-size member of the leg-stand family, between the 6 liter and 10 liter elevated models. Mixed cartons across the leg range let retailers offer one consistent design across capacity steps. Village extension projects also choose this elevated size, since it handles the mixed flock sizes typical of farm households without needing different gear for each species.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: How does it differ from the floor 8 liter drinker?

The floor model sits directly on litter; this version adds the 8 cm stand for wetter pens and larger birds, with the same 8 kg barrel.

Q2: Can mature chickens reach the tray?

Yes, the 8 cm stand is sized for growers and mature birds; chicks should remain on lower drinkers until tall enough.

Q3: How do I clean inside the barrel?

Lift the barrel out, rinse with clean water, and use a long brush through the opening when residue builds up; the stand hoses down separately.
