ABSTRACT:
A novel poultry watering device, and a combined watering and feeding system are disclosed. In a first embodiment, the water device or station includes a support tube, at least one water-holding cup disposed for access by poultry, and water conduit means carried by the support tube and extending from a water line to the water-holding cup. In a second embodiment, the water conduit means is suspended from a pivoting clamp arrangement beneath a feed conveyor. The system includes a plurality of discrete feeder pan units connected to the feed conveyor and disposed to present feed to the poultry. The water line can conveniently be located generally adjacent the feed conveyor. A number of water dispensing stations of the type described are also provided. These water dispensing stations have their support tubes or clamps carried by the feeder conveyor. In this way, the water dispensing stations and feed pan units are all disposed at the same level. The entire system can thus be used to provide feed and water to very small chicks, or to adult poultry.
