Cleanflo Nipple Drinker

Description

Cleanflo Nipple Drinker

Ideal for day old chicks to release! The principal advantage of nipple drinkers over regular drinkers is that they self flush. This dramatically reduces the chance of cross contamination between birds. Husbandry time is reduced as there is limited surface area. The drinker comes complete with hanging cord and 1mtr of pipe. For best results, use the four arm low flow nipples in the shed and the four arm high flow nipples outside.

Westfield Farms have trialled the drinker during its development from 2018 to today. Culminating with the use of 2500 Nipple drinkers during 2021, rearing pheasants and partridge chicks from day old to poults. Also all laying birds and over wintered birds.

“We have designed the Cleanflo out of necessity. There was a need for a flexible drinker suitable for all purposes, which is easy to maintain, does not leak and most importantly supplies the birds with clean fresh water… I hope you have as much enjoyment and satisfation using Cleanflo and I and my birds have through all the stages of use and development”

Michael Wood, Westfield Farms

The cleanflo nipple drinker can enhance growth rates as a result of two primary reasons; the first being access to clean, cool water; the second being the fact that they minimise boredom and encourage consumption.

The Contamination Cover carries over from the original Cleanflo Drinker line, keeping the water cleaner and cooler, particularly when outdoors. Furthermore the cover greatly improves the efficiency of medicated water by providing protection from UV light which destroys the active ingredients.  So no more over medicating the water to compensate, saving you money!

Cleaning the drinker couldn’t be easier. Every part is carefully thought out and can be stripped to allow sterilisation.

TOP TIP: For best results, use the four arm low flow nipples in the sheds, and the four arm high flow nipples outside.

It was relatively straightforward to set up and I had it up and running in under 20 minutes in Shed 2, which is currently housing our 15 week old pure breed pullets. However, given the drinker height is entirely adjustable, we could also use this from day olds upwards.

I’m a huge fan of the nipple drinkers over the traditional manual drinkers as the risk of disease is lowered significantly as the birds are never sharing water. We used it with a header tank so we could still dose the tank with multivitamin with ease.

The outside stand is sturdy enough on our rather uneven rearing paddock, and has stood the test of time with the 15 weekers, which are now full of confidence.

It gets the thumbs up from us!
