Product Information
Full details
The Copele Poultry Drinker Eco is an essential hydration tool for backyard chicken keepers and small-scale poultry enthusiasts who prioritize hygiene and ease of use. Its primary advantage is the high-resistance, antibacterial plastic construction that inhibits bacterial growth and withstands daily wear, though users should note that the 1.5-litre capacity is best suited for smaller flocks or as a supplementary water source.

FAQs
Is this drinker safe for baby chicks?
Yes, the 1.5-litre size and low-profile design make it very appropriate for chicks and smaller poultry.
Does it need a special stand?
No, it is designed to sit directly on the ground or be hung by the handle.
How often should I clean the drinker?
We recommend a quick daily rinse and a thorough cleaning at least once a week to ensure optimal hygiene.
Can I use this for other types of birds?
Yes, it is suitable for chickens, quail, and various other types of small poultry.
Is the plastic BPA free?
The Copele Eco range uses high-quality, food-safe, and antibacterial materials suitable for poultry health.
Troubleshooting
Water leaking from the base
Ensure the base is properly locked into the main reservoir and that the seal is free of debris or grit.
Water flow is too slow
Check that the air hole near the top of the reservoir is not blocked by dirt or bedding, as it needs to draw air to release water.
Algae growth
Ensure the drinker is placed out of direct, intense sunlight and clean more frequently with a mild scrub.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Copele Poultry Drinker, simply invert the container, fill it with clean water, and secure the base firmly. If you choose to hang the drinker, ensure you use a sturdy wire or cord attached to the integrated top handle, positioning it at a height where the birds can reach the basin comfortably without standing in it. For daily care, rinse the basin with fresh water during every refill to remove any dust or particles. Once a week, perform a deep clean using a mild, bird-safe disinfectant and a soft brush to maintain the integrity of the antibacterial surface.
