We use the Hen Hydrators at CityChick HQ to help provide clean water to our flock. Now the Hen Hydrator is available in a smaller, one-gallon container. It's perfect for a smaller flock or for a brooder box like our Pullet PlayPen!

- The translucent bucket was designed to provide UV protection to prevent algae growth and allow for easy viewing of the water level
- Lid fits tightly to prevent spills and protects contents while easy-to-remove fill plug allows for refilling without having to remove the entire lid
