ABSTRACT:
An animal watering drinker has a tank having walls surrounding a chamber for holding water. A top unit mounted on the tank has drinking openings and a continuous first baffle extended downward below the normal level of water in the chamber. The top unit has a top opening open to the space surrounded by the first baffle. A cap mounted on the top unit closes the top opening therein. The cap has a second baffle extended downwardly below the normal level of water in the chamber surrounding a float valve assembly operable to supply water to the chamber. In one form of the drinker, the cap has a plug that closes the top opening in the top unit. Doors pivotally mounted on the top unit normally close the drinking openings.
