Make a Chicken Water Bucket with Me || Poultry Water Cups

My chickens are getting bigger and that means they’re drinking a lot more water! Join me in my backyard as I put together a watering bucket with waterer cups from ‪@LilClucker‬ and see how easy and quick this is to put together!

Hi Josephina - my son has chickens and they're always tipping their water container over. I'm showing him this video so he can make one too. Many blessings to you and your family. Keep on keeping on.

[@mattasplin7269]

If you have a small coop and very few chickens, you can buy 2 or 3 gallon buckets, and if you push your waterer up against the wall, you can just put the cups on the side facing out.

[@growagarden54]

Great project, and so cute! Just wondering, what size drill bit is required. I assume it's important so that the water does not leak? Thanks again.

[@soilandsazon]

The packaging came with all the instructions and a request for a 3/8 drill bit! It’s been 5 days so far and no leaks! Cleaning out the cups if they get dirty is easy too, I just spray each cup with the hose and it forces out all the dirty stuff

[@MommyKat2004]

YES! It does look like a fun fair ride

[@solgoldberg8185]

Josefina!!! You are genius...I have chickens for many years and always give them fresh herbs to eat, but never thought to to give them herbal tea drink....thank you !!!! Subscribed and Like❤

[@soilandsazon]

You are so welcome and I appreciate so much that you’re following along♥️♥️

I have a chicken water bucket with cups like this. I'm wondering what the best way to heat it is during the winter. We have freezing temps here. Has anyone used a water heater that works well with this set up?

[@soilandsazon]

That’s a great question! Hopefully someone can help you out. Where I live it rarely freezes so it’s not something I worry about

[@notcharles]

WRONG CUPS! The chickens break the cups off and they cannot be put back on if the little nib (they hinge on0 gets broken off in the process. Three of five broke in the first month. 12 Full Size Pullets in a 10 x 10 run.

[@soilandsazon]

@notcharles Definitely not the wrong cups. I’ve had my bucket and cups for 2 years now and they just barely broke one off because they knocked it over and it hit cement. 1 cup in 2 years is pretty fantastic to me. I ordered another set for replacement purposes and have only had to replace that one.

[@soilandsazon]

@notcharles And that’s with 20 hens

[@TheStrick10]

I thought you said measure down one inch and then you measured down 2.?

[@soilandsazon]

And a few seconds later I said I ended up doing 2 inches.

[@jennifersimmons1552]

You should put a hole in the lid so it doesn’t create a vacuum and not refill the waters cups.

[@soilandsazon]

It’s not a sealed lid so the water flows perfectly

[@jackcsaffell5641]

Great job Josephina. Learned a new word today, Allicin. When you get a chance listen to Elvis Costello's song "Alison." he he he. God bless your family.

[@teresavera36]

What size drill are you using?

[@soilandsazon]

The kit I bought actually came with the attachments for my drill

[@kecse]

Do you have an overflow problem?

[@soilandsazon]

Like it leaks out? Nope! Not at all! It’s almost been a year and it’s doing great

[@shirleytruett7319]

THANK you I'm going to make one for my chicken's ❤

[@karinleigue7595]

Thank you so much for subscribing! It means so my to me and I’m so glad I could help

[@susanjaeger9851]

Hey, I found you looking for chicken water cup videos! I love your set up. We have two hens we rescued and we adore them 💜💜 You've already given me ideas just from me seeing your yard in this video. We live in Missouri USA. Your birdies are beautiful, ours have names also, Jersey Black and Violet, they mean the world to us and we are just getting them set up. I'm following you now and sharing with my daughter. Thank you so much for your videos. 💌

[@soilandsazon]

This comment brought me so much joy♥️ thank you so much for supporting me and sticking around! It means so much to me

[@goodolbrad3]

Thanks for a cool advice. I'm getting poultry in the spring and looking for ideas.

[@soilandsazon]

You’re so welcome! Good luck with everything!

[@ackritefoo]

Dang so creative!!! That’s cool! For a minute when you added the herbs I thought you were pre marinating them lmao!!

[@soilandsazon]

🤣 it smells like I was going to marinate them too lol

👍Great job.

Great project

[@latoyawanderinggringa605]

I love what you are doing on your channel. You are such an inspiration. I currently live in Costa Rica, but looking to move to Mexico. Loving your recipes.

[@soilandsazon]

Oh my gosh! I’d love to be able to spend months at a time in Mexico. If I had the money and my husband had a flexible job I’d pack us up and take us over there to stay with family for a while so my kids could be immersed in their culture for long periods of time. We homeschool so it would be easy in that area. So much of my childhood is memories of spending weeks at a time in Mexico

[@soilandsazon]

And thank you so much for following my journey♥️

[@latoyawanderinggringa605]

I found you because of Roots and Refuge. Then I fell in love with your content. My husband and I feel very blessed to have been able to retire early in life. We are from Missouri, but we wanted to travel and show our kids different cultures. I'm glad we did.

[@phatmeemaw6322]

You treat you chickens so well! You can also freeze huge chunks of ice and put it for the extra hot days!

[@soilandsazon]

I actually freeze fruit and veggies into large Ice chunks in water and let them peck so they’re hydrating and getting frozen treats at the same time

[@soilandsazon]

And yes! Ice in water! Now I can do a big chunk

[@Senoraeramedia]

@@soilandsazon of course! We are cut from the same cloth - I created a personal “campo life” channel too. We need more Latina homesteaders

[@soilandsazon]

Gonna find it! Yes! It’s why I decided to take the leap and try because it’s disheartening not seeing faces like mine that have the similar lifestyle, growing the same ingredients, cooking with the same types of ingredients etc. My 8 year old is the one who’s been pushing me to start a channel because I wanted nothing to do with it, but I’m listening to his push and this calling I feel I’ve been given and hoping this community of Latino homesteaders on KZbin will grow!
