When raising chickens<\/a>, it’s very important that they always have access to drinking water. A chicken can become dehydrated even after a day without water depending on the weather conditions.<\/p>\n Because of this, they need to have a good waterer. You’ll want to get one (or more than one) that will hold enough water so you don’t have to refill it multiple times a day.<\/p>\n And if you are having trouble with their water freezing, check out our post on the best heated chicken waterers<\/a>.<\/p>\n With that being said, here are our favorites.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>Prices pulled from the Amazon Product Advertising API on: <\/span><\/p> <\/span>Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.

Also, the large opening makes it very easy to reach inside with a brush and clean it out if necessary.<\/p>\n I’ve personally used this type of chicken waterer on my farm and it works great. The plastic is very durable and it’s easy to pick up and move around.<\/p>\n It has a large bowl so multiple chickens can drink out of it at once.<\/p>\n Because of this and it’s portability, this is a great waterer for pastured poultry.<\/p>\n With all of these features, this is our pick for best plastic chicken waterer that’s portable.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>Prices pulled from the Amazon Product Advertising API on: <\/span><\/p> <\/span>Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.

As a matter of fact, I had to switch to one of these metal waterers on my farm because our livestock guardian dogs were chewing up our plastic ones.<\/p>\n Another great thing about a metal checkin waterers is that you can put them on top of a heated base during the winter to keep your water from freezing.<\/p>\n Like the previous waterer, they have a large bowl and are portable so they are great for pastured poultry.<\/p>\n Because of these features, this is our pick for best metal chicken waterer that’s portable.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>Prices pulled from the Amazon Product Advertising API on: <\/span><\/p> <\/span>Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.

They keep the chickens from getting in the water so it stays cleaner longer.<\/p>\n And this one in particular uses a nipple system instead of cups or a bowl so the water stays even cleaner.<\/p>\n It has 4 nipples so 4 chickens can drink at once. It can also sit on a pedestal if you would rather not hang it.<\/p>\n It also has an anti-roost lid on the top to keep your chickens from hopping on it.<\/p>\n With all of these great features, this is our choice for best hanging chicken waterer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span>Prices pulled from the Amazon Product Advertising API on: <\/span><\/p> <\/span>Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date\/time indicated and are subject to change.

Sometimes you just need something that has no frills and can get the job done for as cheap as possible.<\/p>\n If that’s what you are looking for then this RentACoope Chicken Waterer is your best choice.<\/p>\n It doesn’t hold as much water as the others, it’s not as durable, and it’s harder to fill up. But it will keep your chickens hydrated.<\/p>\n This is our choice for best budget chicken waterer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nBest Chicken Waterer That’s Wall Mounted<\/h2>\n\n\t\t \t\t
