The Watermaster 3 has been designed for use by broilers, pullets, layers and turkeys from day-old onwards. The special anti-perch shape prevents birds from fouling the drinker and in this, the big brother of the world renowned Watermaster 2, the 15 in diameter offers greater drinking space. The valve system is extremely simple to ensure continuous water supply. The large flat filter is easily removed for cleaning and all fittings are self-sealing with no ‘O' rings or washers' needed. Watermasters are supplied complete with the BEC saddle connector, 10ft. of tubing and suspension. The recommended stocking rate is 10 to 14 waterers per 1000 birds. The Bee 75 Waterer: Takes up less room in the house more room for the birds. It is distribution that counts - more drinking points, for the same money, means that the birds have less distance to walk to water. Lighter and more convenient to handle and clean. At the end of the crop, easy to empty house - one person can carry 50 to 100 waterers. Easy Connections: a) Saddle connector (see inset), b) Tube fittings (see inset) c) new easy method of raising and lowering the waterer with hanger box. Modern 27.00, Shells down to 15.00. .
