Pros: holds 5 gallons
Cons: chickens like to roost on them
I like these better than the plastic containers I've tried so far. They hold 5 gallons of water and until they start to rust from age and hard water they are great. When they start to slowly leak its time to replace them. Only downfall is the chickens like to roost on them and poop in their water. I've tried a few things to combat that issue and nothing seems to work for long.

Pros: Larger water so less refilling
Cons: pops open to easily
Pops open to easily and at 2 to 3 weeks the chicks begin roosting on them, if its not very full they will knock them over, so more work because now you're changing litter more often
