Horizontal Freeze-Free Watering Nipples (buy more, save more)

Low price alert! Watering nipples are one of the best upgrades to a traditional chicken waterer. They're mess-free, so you'll spend far less time cleaning and scrubbing out poopy, dirty waterers, and more time enjoying your flock. Screw these nipples into the container of your choice (instructions below), like 5-gallon plastic buckets or a PVC pipe. But there are other nipples on the market. Here's why ours are worth the investment.

What sets these apart from vertical nipples: they don't drip(!), and, because no water is stored in the nipple unit even when your bucket or drinker is full of water, they won't freeze during the winter provided you're heating your water supply.

What sets these apart from other horizontal nipples you'll find elsewhere: ours are super heavy duty! They were originally created for weasel farms to withstand gnarly teeth and rascally personalities. The plastic is high density, and the nipple won't break. Our supplier has had these in use in her own flock for six years, and they've never failed.

Please keep in mind that as a result of this product's extra strength, it's not suitable for chicks their first week of life. They're not strong enough to depress the nipple.

A benefit of using nipple drinkers vs. traditional tray-based watering systems is that you also have the option to place your chosen waterer on the ground, rather than hang it--a big bonus for many of you who have coops or runs that can't accommodate the weight of hanging systems.

To train your chickens on this type of nipple, we suggest tapping on each nipple so that water fills the reservoir. Chickens will note the water and get the idea, pecking at the stainless steel pin which will release more water. It may take a day or so of several attempts for them to fully understand. (It may also help to put sweet jam or jelly onto the nipples, to encourage pecking!) It is very important to take all other water sources out during this time.

Installation instructions: Use an 11/32" drill bit to drill holes in your preferred bucket, a minimum of six inches apart from one another. Alternately, you might choose the all-in-one drinker units. They use these same nipples, and they're designed to accept our de-icer to keep your water from freezing, even in the coldest temps!

Use DIY Tee's to make your own watering system!

Note: The manufacturer recommends screwing the nipples in only 80% of the way. The flange does not need to be secured flush with the bucket.

Amazing!

This tack set is so gorgeous, and much better quality than I expected, AND dosent get any glitter off. (A huge win!) It was the only thing I could find like what I truly wanted and I am in love with it! 💜 The only reason I give it a 4 star is due to the headstall. The check peices are much bigger than I expected, based off of other headstalls, as well as the buckles, so beware of that. Other than that it is a truly amazing set and I love it!

We are so happy to hear that you are loving your tack set. We appreciate your feedback and will make note of it for future improvements. Thank you for choosing our product and we hope you continue to enjoy it!

I LOVE HAY CHIX

I can't say enough good things about Hay Chix nets. Durable, easy to fill and tie, just the right size. We tried a hundred other hay net brands, trying to avoid paying the higher price, and my only regret is not going for the Hay Chix nets from the start. They are hands down the best. We have 18 horses at home right now and these nets make feeding time faster, and save us a TON of hay too!

We absolutely love the Hay Chix bale nets too! We’re thrilled you love them. Thank you for your support!

Love the hay net

We love the 2 string hay nets! The horses dont waste a bit of hay in their stalls anymore.

Beautiful!

The set was beautiful and looked like copper.
Was disappointed that the socks did not come in as ordered from Burchhilltack. I ordered three pairs of socks. Two came in rather quickly and the other was canceled by the company.

Thank you so much! We’re thrilled to hear that you love the tack set! We apologize for the inconvenience regarding your sock order - unfortunately, the item was out of stock. We appreciate your understanding and continued support!

Lifesaver!

I have a horse that is allergic to the outdoors that loves to stand in puddles for hours on end. There's literally one spot on my entire property that holds water and he stands in it. The muddy buddy products have been a lifesaver to heal his pastern dermatitis from being stupid and keep it from coming back!

Thank you so much! We’re so happy to hear that our products have been so helpful to keeping your horse happy and healthy. Your support truly means a lot!

Love it!

My tack set that I bought was similar to this one but it’s red with the Louis Vuitton design on it! It is really good quality and worth the price! The only issue that I have is that the breast collar is a little too big for my horses but all I have to do is loop it and it’s all good to go! The head stall is a good size too. Other than that, I love this set so much!!

Thank you so much! We’re thrilled you love it - your horses look great! We appreciate your the feedback on the fit of the items. We are always working to improve our products. Keep rockin' the BHT shirt too!
