Olba plastic drinktoren rood 12L
An affordable and generous 12-liter drinking tower that keeps your chickens hydrated without the need for daily refills.
The Olba 12-liter plastic drinking tower is an excellent, budget-friendly choice for anyone keeping a small to medium flock of chickens. Thanks to the simple gravity-fed system, water flows automatically, and the sturdy bayonet lock ensures the tank stays securely in place during transport. While the plastic can be vulnerable in freezing temperatures and lifting a full 12-liter tank requires some strength, this drinker offers outstanding value for its low price.
Reasons to buy
- Large 12-liter capacity, ideal for multiple chickens
- Simple and reliable bayonet closure
- Equipped with a practical carrying handle
- Very competitively priced for its size
Watch-outs
- Quite heavy when fully loaded (12 kg)
- Plastic can become brittle in severe frost
Easy to fill and clean
The drinking tower operates using a proven bayonet system. You unlock the cylinder, fill it upside down, lock the red base back on, and quickly flip it over. Thanks to the smooth plastic walls, the interior is easy to scrub clean, which is essential for preventing algae growth and bacteria.
Suitable for daily outdoor use
With a 12-liter capacity, you won't have to haul water every single day, depending on your flock's size. The bright red color naturally attracts chickens, helping them find the water source quickly. Be mindful of direct sunlight, as it can accelerate algae growth and weaken the plastic over time.
Frequently asked questions
Is this drinking tower suitable for winter use?
Yes, but during severe frost, the water can freeze and the plastic may become brittle. We recommend using a heater base or bringing the drinker indoors during extreme cold.
How many chickens can this drinker accommodate?
A 12-liter capacity is typically sufficient for a flock of 6 to 10 chickens for several days, depending on the weather.
Can I hang this drinking tower?
While it features a carrying handle, it is primarily designed for transport. Due to the 12 kg weight when full, we recommend placing the tower on a flat, slightly elevated surface (like a tile) to keep the water clean.
