Did you know that chickens are nearly 70% water and their eggs are approximately 74% water? In order for a chicken to lay a 2oz egg, they need 1.5oz of water for just ONE egg. Needless to say, an essential nutrient is water. Chickens need to consume twice as much water compared to humans on a relative basis. Laying hens should have at least 8% of their body weight in water per day. At normal temperature, chickens consumer 1.6-2 times as much water as feed. .tg {border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:0;border-color:#ccc;border-width:1px;border-style:solid;}

Care & Instructions Usage Instructions Fill water reservoir with water. Seat the plastic plug into the hole in cap. Screw cap snugly onto filled water tank. Be careful not to cross thread. Locate a dry, flat area to place base of waterer. Set water tank onto base. The spike in the center of the base will dislodge the plug in the cap of the tank and automatically fill the water base. Refilling For refilling, quickly turn over the water reservoir. Minimal water discharge will occur if done quickly. Empty contents from tank, rinse, and refill as necessary. Cleaning your K&H Waterer To keep your K&H Waterer clean and free from buildup, follow these simple steps: Prepare the Cleaning Solution: Add hot water to the waterer bottle. Add 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda. Pour in 1-2 tablespoons of vinegar. Add a handful of small, smooth rocks to the bottle. These will help scrub away any debris during cleaning. Clean the Bottle: Secure the cap and gently shake the bottle to mix the solution and rocks. Swish the mixture around for a few minutes, allowing the rocks to scrub the inside of the bottle. Rinse Thoroughly: Empty the solution and rinse the bottle thoroughly with warm water to ensure all baking soda, vinegar, and debris are removed. Let the bottle air dry completely before refilling with fresh water. Regular cleaning will help keep your K&H Waterer in great condition and provide your pets with clean, fresh water!
