Subject: RE: Swinging hog nipple water


SW MN - mt. lake/windom
more efficient than nipple drinkers bolted to gate. Gates corrode where nipple drinkers are mounted. Can place hanging drinkers anywhere. If nipples are set for correct flow rates, equipment maintained and adjusted hieght properly hanging drinkers can be efficient. Problem is that they are constantly swinging and wearing out chains,hooks, fittings that cause failures and major leaks. They require a lot to manage to keep at optimal performance. In my opinion the best drinker on the market is the gate mounted oval cup drinker. Not much water wastage possible and only thing to manage is replacing leaking nipples.
