Rite Farm Products Horizontal Poultry Watering Nipples with 1/2" PVC Tees
Build a poultry watering system around your flock and setup with Rite Farm Products Horizontal Poultry Watering Nipples and 1/2" PVC Tees. Designed for use with 1/2" PVC pipe, these screw-in poultry nipples provide water directly at each drinking point, helping keep drinking water contained instead of sitting open where bedding, droppings, and debris can get into it.
This DIY chicken watering system gives you the flexibility to determine the layout and number of watering stations that work for your birds. The horizontal nipples can be used for broilers, breeders, laying hens, pullets, chicks, and other birds, with the manufacturer recommending approximately one nipple for every three birds. Connect the system to a gravity-fed water supply, such as a 5- to 55-gallon storage drum, for clean water on demand without relying on traditional open waterers.
Key Features
- Horizontal Poultry Watering Nipples: Each nipple features a stainless-steel nipple head and provides birds with direct access to drinking water while helping keep the water supply protected from droppings and debris.
- 1/2" PVC Tee Connections: The included slip-to-slip tees allow 1/2" PVC pipe to slide directly into the open ends, making it possible to create a custom poultry watering line for your setup.
- Helps Reduce Watering Mess: The nipple-style design helps prevent the spilling associated with open waterers, which can help keep bedding and nesting material drier.
- Customizable for Different Flock Sizes: Add watering points according to the number of birds being served rather than being limited to a fixed waterer configuration.
- Suitable for Multiple Types of Poultry: Designed for broilers, breeders, layers, pullets, chicks, and other birds, including birds ranging from day-old chicks to mature poultry.
- Low-Pressure Operation: The nipples are designed to operate at 5 PSI or less and can be incorporated into a gravity-fed watering system using an appropriate water reservoir.
Build a Cleaner DIY Poultry Watering System
Traditional open waterers can collect bedding, dirt, and droppings, while spilled water can leave the surrounding area wet. Horizontal chicken watering nipples keep the drinking point closed until a bird activates it, helping provide a cleaner, more contained way to supply water.
The customizable PVC setup is also useful when watering needs change with flock size. A gravity-fed reservoir ranging from 5 to 55 gallons can supply the nipple lines, allowing the watering system to be planned around the available space, number of birds, and preferred reservoir size.

- If connecting the watering system to a garden hose or household-pressure water source, a pressure regulator is required to reduce the pressure to 5 PSI or less.
- Excessive water pressure can cause the nipples to spray rather than dispense water properly and may damage the nipple.
- The manufacturer recommends approximately one watering nipple for every three birds, although the number of drinking stations should allow birds reasonable access to water when needed.
