Chicken Feeder No Waste Automatic Poultry Feeder Ports Kit Chicken Feeders and Waterer Set

Great size for my chickens, Ducks & Geese. Easy to install and comes with everything needed to do so. No leaks, and the feeders really cut down on the mess. Recommend!

They leaked no matter what I did. But seemed to be better after silicone was added.

These are made for buckets, both the feeders and watered are made for 5g buckets. I bought some fittings to plumb them in a 14g tanker system, but that was over the top. It comes with the bits you need to cut them into the buckets, which is great, I didn’t care for the waterer bit, kinda cheap but gets the job done. The stop valves work like they should, and it comes with the wing nut and an o-ring.The only thing I really didn’t like about it is the feed port and collar threads are too shallow, so they slip over each other and do not “lock together” very well. I keep mine under a roof, so water doesn’t get in anyways, so it doesn’t bother me terribly. But I could definitely see someone getting REALLY frustrated trying to fit these snugly on the bucket, because you’re trying to fit a flat collar on a round bucket with shallow threads.Overall, if you wanna get a relatively spill resistant, water saving option, this is a heck of a deal. Yeah it has its problems, but 6 water 6 feed ports for $24, hard to go wrong.***Update:Been a year. Had to replace most of the waterers because chickens broke them. I ended up having to wrap the treads with plumbing tape, not leaking anymore.Feeder ports are on/off as to whether they keep the food in decently. Still the same problem with the threads. But they’re still on, haven’t fallen off yet, so that’s good I guess.I see the price dropped down by $5, I’d chock that up to the price reflecting the quality…I originally said “hard to go wrong” but I wouldn’t buy it again.

Overall the product works well but the 3.15" hole saw that comes with it should be a bit smaller. Maybe a 3" hole saw will work better because the hole saw that comes with the kit will make a hole that's just a tad too big allowing water to get in, even though it comes with a washer, the washer won't help since the gap is too big.

Works good

It's a simple concept,but the product is poorly/cheaply made. I had to use thread tape to get the feeder ports near nonexistent threads to hold to the collar. The collars weren't fully threaded either. The hole saw is oversized so the o-rings goes right through the opening. Flat rubber washers would be better. I've got to go back with something to seal the gaps. Both of those issues make the feeders not waterproof on round buckets.(They picture round buckets being used, so one would think that they were made for round buckets.) Make sure to evenly space the ports out or they will hit each other. Also if you can, place the bottom of the ports about 2-3 inches from the bottom. The waterers seem to work ok. I guess for the price you can't expect much.

The feeders work as intended, the waterers are a mixed bag. A couple of my cups leaked pretty bad, I believe there is a bit of variation in the spring tensions that is at fault. The cups that work fill about 3/4 full, the ones that leak fill completely and leak out the back side. While the cups do feel fairly sturdy my chickens have managed to knock the cups off several times which results in all the water running out. If the spring doesn't get launched the cups are pretty easy to put back together. Overall if you are looking for a worry free solution this isn't it.

easy to install and maintain cups are large enough and don't leak i installed the feeders about one inch from the bottom of the bucket so i only need a couple of inches of feed that i put in the coop during my morning feeding process only thing i can say about the installation is when drilling the holes for the water cups keep them the original size and don't make them any larger this will make a little of a snug fit which is what you want the rubber gasket goes on the outside of the bucket and if for some reason you do notice one leaking apply some silicone sealant between the bucket and the rubber gasket, tighten it up then allow to cure overnight.
