New and improved heated chicken waterer

Heated WatererHeated chicken nippleLast year, the best heated waterers we’d seen for chickens were our own products. But we took some time off innovating and someone else came to the rescue.

The 2-gallon Farm Innovators Chicken Drinker uses a nipple designed to carry the heat of the water to the outdoors. According to their literature, chickens can keep pecking up clean water using this product down past 0 Fahrenheit, and Mark’s mom has reported good results at least into the teens.

We’re curious to hear from anyone else who might have given this new heated waterer a try. What did you love and what did you hate about Farm Innovators’ contribution?

A new chapter

Development of the Avian Aqua MiserSince 2011, our cottage business has provided over 13,000 backyard enthusiasts with poop-free chicken
waterers. But all good things must come to an end. A move to Ohio required us to make hard choices about which items to include in the moving van, and new interests are pulling us in different directions as well.

 

To cut a long story short — the Avian Aqua Miser and EZ Miser are no longer available. If you’re having problems with your existing waterers, though, don’t despair. We’re just an email away and are glad to troubleshoot any issues you might be having: info@avianaquamiser.com

 

If you’re interest in learning more about chickens, on the other hand — stick around! We’ll be revamping the blog with new articles in the near future. Stay tuned!

Summer vacation

Homemade chicken waterersWe’re moving to a new homestead in a new state, and all of our chicken waterer supplies have been packed away for the transition. So our store is on summer vacation and we are unable to ship any waterers at this time. I apologize for the delay!

 

While you’re waiting for the Avian Aqua Miser to return, why not check out our ebooks? You can learn everything from incubation to pasturing in our Permaculture Chicken
series.

 

Or come hang out with us online. Our homesteading blog is full of diy tips, pretty pictures, and highlights of our day. We look forward to seeing you over there!
