Review: Well Worth the Money!!! - Purchased about a month ago. This water dish works very well!!! Simply connected to your water hose and the water stays filled up. Dish is hanging just at the right height for them to drink from! And yes there is some dirt that does get into the dish from Chickens but very little. All you have to do is turn it sideways and it automatically refills with fresh water. This is the 3rd different water dish we have purchased. And we are SOLD on this way of watering for our feathered friends. WELL worth the money!!! Review: Best chicken water I ever used.

And level It does take just a little bit of plumbing but it is well worth it. I never hardly even go inside my coupe or run. Anymore I hate those refillable chicken watered if u ever delt with them they suck lol this is the way to go ## Features - COMPATIBLE WITH HOSE - The automatic water bowl hooks up to any standard half- inch NPT pipe. - ENDLESS FLOW - The automatic flow provides a limitless supply of clean water. - STRONG FLOW RATE - The waterer's valve safely allows for safe operation between 20 and 50 psi. - HIGH CAPACITY - Great for large flocks, this waterer holds 2 pints of water, waters up to 175 birds. - GREAT DESIGN - The heavy-duty plastic bowl with non-rusting brass fountain stem has a 6.5 inch in diameter and 2.5 inch deep. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000AYFZ60 | | ASIN | B000AYFZ60 | | Best Sellers Rank | #45,301 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #178 in Poultry Fountains & Waterers | | Brand Name | Little Giant | | Color | Red | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (1,282) | | Date First Available | November 14, 2008 | | Date First Available | November 14, 2008 | | Directions | Use as direcated. | | Included Components | Fountain | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions LxWxH | 6.5 x 6.5 x 5 inches | | Item Package Dimensions L x W x H | 9.76 x 8.7 x 2.87 inches | | Item Weight | 0.6 Pounds | | Item model number | 2500 | | Item model number | 2500 | | Manufacturer | Miller Manufacturing | | Manufacturer | Miller Manufacturing | | Material | Plastic | | Model Name | Automatic Game Bird Fountain | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 6.5 x 6.5 x 5 inches; 9.6 ounces | | Size | 6.5 x 2.5 | | Specific Uses for Product | Outdoor | | Target Audience Keyword | unisex-adult | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Little Giant - **Capacity:** 2 Liters - **Color:** Red - **Item Weight:** 0.6 Pounds - **Material:** Plastic ## Images ![Little Giant® Automatic Poultry Fount | Game Bird Fount | Heavy Duty Plastic | Waterer Bowl with Hose Attachment | 2 Pints - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21xFvKSrAUL.jpg) ![Little Giant® Automatic Poultry Fount | Game Bird Fount | Heavy Duty Plastic | Waterer Bowl with Hose Attachment | 2 Pints - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ILexVjpOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I can't get mine to stop filling up. it just overfills even though i've adjusted it multiple times. what should i do to get it to work correctly?** A: Adjustment is accomplished by varying the spring pressure via the knurled brass adjustment knobs. With bowl off, tighten spring pressure until no water flows, then slowly reduce tension on spring until you achieve desired water level. If this doesn't work, the Schrader valve inside the stem of the unit may need to be replaced. A Schrader valve is the one-way valve in your car tires that lets you inflate tires when the stem is depressed by an air hose. The valve can be easily removed with a valve stem removal tool and a new one should be readily available at any auto or tire store. **Q: Looking for Replacement water valve stem** A: If you are referring to the small valve in the bottom of the brass stem that controls the water flow, you can buy these at any auto parts store, or at Walmart in the auto or bicycle department. They are Schrader valves, and usually come with a small tool to remove the old stem and install the new one. They just screw in and out. I have found that these wear out over time, or the tip gets bent, especially by ducks who use water constantly. The brass part has proven very durable. Just brush it all out while you have it apart.

Would have to adapt up to 3/4" hose thread. The adaptor they show will do the job. I attached to a section of pipe for stability and used the pipe to secure it to my fence. PVC could be used, but I used galvanized for longer life and rigidity. **Q: Can this be hooked up to a gravity feed 5 gallon bucket hung above the cages?** A: The valve needs between 20 psi and 50 psi to operate correctly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well Worth the Money!!! *by M***E on May 22, 2025* Purchased about a month ago.

I've tried everything - from custom solutions (paint buckets and poultry nipples fed via PVC pipes), to the waterers the feed stores all have, and nothing is as reliable or convenient as these guys. However, they do get dirty, pretty quickly, because chickens tend to keep a lot of dirt in their beaks, and when they go for a drink, it ends up at the bottom of your red bowl here. That's not a big deal, but it does mean you'll have to pop this thing off every couple days to wash it out, and unfortunately, after a few months, it's likely that the little valve which controls the flow of water into this thing will fail. What happens next? Regular overflows. Pros: Won't need to haul a hose around anymore Don't need to refill the waterer every day, or every couple days even If you get it located in a great spot, it'll work for big chickens, little chickens, and even the wild birds that live in your bushes You COULD use this for other small mammals (little dogs, cats, etc.) Cons: The valves don't last too long - they're almost guaranteed to fail within a couple months time and there's no way to order new ones without replacing the entire mechanism (unless you get them from a tire shop or a bike shop...) The red bowl part gets really dirty much more quickly than I'd like, requiring me to remove the unit every couple days to clean it out with a hose Conclusion: While they aren't perfect, they're the best thing I've found thus far, and have dramatically reduced the amount of time I'm forced to dedicate to keeping our flock watered. Until I find something better, these sit at the top of the pile with 4 stars. ## Frequently Bought Together - Little Giant® Automatic Poultry Fount | Game Bird Fount | Heavy Duty Plastic | Waterer Bowl with Hose Attachment | 2 Pints - Anderson Metals - 57484-1208 Brass Garden Hose Fitting, Connector, 3/4" Female Hose ID x 1/2" Male Pipe - Little Giant® Poultry Fount Bowl Guard | Heavy Duty Plastic Feeder Cover | Feeder Guard --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4582040-little-giant-automatic-poultry-fount-game-bird-fount-heavy-duty](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4582040-little-giant-automatic-poultry-fount-game-bird-fount-heavy-duty) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
