The Chicken Nipple Drinker is a modern poultry drinking system component designed for layer hens, broilers, breeders, ducks, geese, and other poultry. The core principle is that chickens can obtain water by pecking at the metal part of the nipple drinker, providing a clean, safe, and controlled drinking method.
This design prevents water contamination, reduces the spread of bacteria and viruses, and enhances farming efficiency. In modern poultry farms, nipple drinkers have become a standard part of automated drinking systems, ensuring stable water supply, improving poultry growth rates, and reducing disease risks.
A Chicken Nipple Drinker consists of the following main parts:
Nipple Valve Core
Made of high-quality stainless steel, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant.
360° drinking design, allowing birds to drink from any direction.
Equipped with a precision spring to regulate water flow and prevent leakage.
Plastic Casing
Made of high-strength PP or ABS plastic, impact-resistant, heat-resistant, and anti-aging.
Typically red-colored to attract poultry and encourage drinking.
Threaded Connector
Designed with standard thread size, easy to install on square or round water pipes.
Compatible with PVC and galvanized pipes used in different poultry water systems.
Sealing Ring
Built-in silicone or rubber sealing rings ensure leak-proof performance, reducing water waste.
Features & Benefits
Hygienic & Contamination-Free
The closed water supply system prevents dust, feed residues, and chicken manure from contaminating the drinking water.
Reduces bacterial and viral infections, ensuring a clean water supply.
Water-Saving & Efficient
Unlike traditional open water systems, nipple drinkers release water only when pecked, minimizing water waste.
Helps lower water costs and keep poultry houses dry, reducing humidity-related diseases such as coccidiosis and mold infections.
Durable & Long-Lasting
Made of 304 stainless steel + high-strength plastic, ensuring a lifespan of 3-5 years.
Leak-proof and clog-resistant, reducing maintenance costs.
360° Water Release for Easy Drinking
Chickens can drink from any angle, making it easy for birds of all ages to use.
Particularly suitable for layers, broilers, and breeders.
Compatible with Various Drinking Systems
Can be installed on round pipes, square pipes, and automatic drinking systems.
Works well with pressure regulators and drip cups to prevent spillage and maintain a dry poultry house.
4. Application Areas
Chicken Nipple Drinkers are widely used in poultry farms, supporting different farming systems, including:
Battery Cage System
Directly installed on cage drinking lines, providing a dedicated drinking point for each chicken.
Ideal for layer and breeder farms, reducing water contamination and improving egg production rates.
Floor Rearing System
Can be used with drip cups to prevent water from dripping onto the ground.
Suitable for broilers, ducks, geese, and other poultry farming.
Automated Poultry Farms
Can be integrated into automatic drinking systems, reducing manual labor and improving efficiency.
