Broiler Equipment

Broiler Feeding & Watering Equipment

The Broiler Feeding and Watering Systems are designed to work complementary to each other, each providing just the right amount of nutrition and hydration when and where birds need it most.

The Broiler Watering System uses simple flushing intakes, a variety of precision-machined nipple drinkers, and assorted accessories to ensure the watering lines deliver fresh, clean water to all birds. Some features include: A locking saddle to keep the drinker securely in place and allow the optional use of cups; broiler nipple drinkers with precise flow rates to reduce wasted water and spills; a hanging kit for improved stability, a high flow regulator for proper water flow in the line; an EZ-Flush Intake for simple line flushing, and a double anti-roost wire to discourage birds from resting on the watering line.

The Broiler Feeding System uses a combination of flat chain feeding and pan feeding to ensure males, females, and pullets are receiving the right amount of feed at the right time.

Premium Roaster Nipples & PFAs

The best of our world famous VAL-CO nipples, the Roaster nipples (VR150 series), are made from the hardest quality stainless steel used in the industry and individually turned on CNC – Swiss precision lathes.

The Roaster nipples have an optimal triple seal that, with proper management, makes the use of drip cups unnecessary. The Roaster has a thick wear-resistant nipple pin and is particularly suitable for heavier animals such as broilers, breeding animals and ducks with a high water requirement.

The VBL150 drinker is made of the same top quality stainless steel and with the same precision machining but has a thinner nipple pin, gives less water and is designed for lighter broilers, laying hens and rearing animals.

Double Anti-Roost Wire

VAL-CO has developed a double anti-roost wire for its watering systems after recent inquiries from the poultry industry. Middle support bracket for anti-roost wires is installed every 1.5 m on the length of the watering lines. The system is aimed for breeder production, where shocking wires are no longer permitted and for farms that raise the males from layer production that may no longer be culled in the hatcheries.

The system is an addition to the VAL-CO nipple-drinking system and can also be used with the Big-Tom turkey drinker system and other watering system. As can be expected from VAL-CO the system is a strong and durable solution allowing farmers making money cost-effectively and without any problems for years to come.
