I built a gravity feeder into the wall
I was wondering the same thing? How DOES it work? I can't really see that bunji cord holding that container when it's full of water. That will be pretty heavy.Great job although, I'm not exactly sure how your contraption in the last 2 pictures is going to work.

How are they supposed to get the water?You are good to go...Let the stocks start breeding in it...It's neat and a clever idea you did there on the home made water fount...Very roomy...Great work...
They drink out of the white tube?It's a gravity tube.
The water will fill up to the line of the bottom of the jug (about a quarter inch below the lip)
as the birds drink the tube will refill.
Same thing you can buy for pets at petsmart.
You know, those bowls that you screw an upside down cola bottle to.
They make the same thing for small poultry pens but I made mine out of spare plumbing parts and an apple juice jug.
I had several just like it when I raised pigeons as a kid.
Be my guest.WOW! Nice job!! Your birds are STYLIN" !!!!! I really like the fountain ... mind if we borrow the idea for our aviary (to be built once the snow melts) ??
No, that was just for the picture. The waterers weight is held by notches cut into the running board perches in the aviary. The bunjie cord just keeps them from being pulled over.I was wondering the same thing? How DOES it work? I can't really see that bunji cord holding that container when it's full of water.

The loft looks really good though. You did a terrific job.
From the open end of the tube.How are they supposed to get the water?![]()
Is there a perch for them to stand on?
My worry would be, the bird drinking into the water...rather than the water running out of the container...so they are constantly contaminating the water should they be ill.
