Olba 1.5-liter green chick waterer – Bayonet closure

ensures that the water remains clean and fresh, which is crucial for the health of the chicks.

A 1.5-liter capacity suitable for chicks

With its 1.5-liter capacity, this drinker offers an excellent compromise between autonomy and compactness.

This capacity is particularly beneficial for chicks and small groups of poultry. It provides enough reserve while allowing for regular water renewal, which is essential for keeping drinking water fresh and clean.

Its compact format also makes it easy to install near the heated area of the brooder, while ensuring it is not placed directly under the heat source.

A simple and effective siphon system

The drinker operates on the siphon principle. Once the tank is filled and the unit is turned over, the water gradually descends into the cup as the animals drink.

The level regulates automatically: it is not necessary to constantly refill the cup.

This allows chicks to have permanent access to water, while most of the reserve remains protected inside the tank.

Bayonet closure: a reliable assembly

Olba equips this drinker with a bayonet closure that firmly connects the tank to its base.

This system allows the two elements to be properly locked before turning the drinker over. The resulting connection is solid and prevents the base from accidentally detaching during handling.

The principle also facilitates daily filling and cleaning operations.

How to fill the drinker?

Filling is particularly simple.

Just unlock the bayonet closure, turn the tank over, and fill it with water. The base is then replaced and locked before turning the unit back to its normal position.

The water then automatically feeds the cup.

This method allows for quick filling, which is particularly appreciated when multiple pieces of equipment need to be maintained daily.

Extra-durable plastic

Durability is one of the strengths of this range of Olba drinkers.

The tank is made of particularly resistant polypropylene copolymer (PP). Olba uses this material to achieve better resistance to shocks and harsh conditions than with standard polypropylene.

This feature is particularly interesting for breeding equipment that is regularly handled, moved, filled, and cleaned.

The material also maintains good resistance when temperatures become cold, a period during which some standard plastics can become more brittle.

Enhanced UV protection

The plastic used also benefits from UV protection.

This feature helps preserve the mechanical qualities of the material when it is regularly exposed to light. The drinker thus retains its robustness longer during daily use.

This design allows the drinker to be used throughout different seasons, both indoors and in suitable breeding areas.

Level indication for monitoring the reserve

The tank has a capacity indication, useful for easily checking the available water quantity.

This feature allows for quick reserve checks and anticipation of the next refill.

With young poultry, this monitoring is particularly important: chicks must always have enough clean and fresh water.

To place on the ground or hang

The Olba drinker can be used in two ways.

For very young chicks, it can be placed directly on the ground or, preferably, on a small stable and slightly elevated surface when their size allows. This helps reduce the amount of litter that might be thrown into the cup.

It is also possible to hang the drinker. This configuration becomes particularly interesting as the animals grow, as it helps keep the water cleaner.

Cleaner water through proper installation

Chicks naturally scratch their litter and can quickly send shavings, straw, or other debris into their water.

To limit this phenomenon, it is advisable to gradually adjust the height of the drinker to the growth of the animals. The cup should remain easily accessible without being unnecessarily low.

An appropriate installation, combined with regular cleaning, ensures that the water remains clean and fresh, which is crucial for the health of the chicks. allows for cleaner water and reduces the frequency of emptying caused by litter accumulation.

Simple daily maintenance

The drinker can be disassembled by separating the base from the reservoir thanks to the bayonet closure. This design facilitates access to the different parts during cleaning.

It is recommended to renew the water daily and regularly rinse the reservoir and the cup. A more thorough cleaning should be carried out periodically to prevent the formation of deposits and biofilm.

Good hygiene of drinkers is particularly important during the first weeks of chicks' lives.
