JW Pet Company Clean Water Silo Waterer Bird Accessory, Regular (Colors Vary)


Not for all bird cages
We used this waterer with our old bird cage, and it worked just fine. Especially once we got the hang of how to flip it over without losing all the water in it! A really good feature is that the birds can't soil the water and yet they can still drink as if they were outdoors. The problem came when our finches began escaping the old cage, which had 5/8in bar spacing. We got a new cage with 3/8 in bar spacing, and this item didn't work with the narrower bars.
More water on floor than in bottle
When the bottle is filled and flipped over, the floating valve tends to get stuck and all the water leaks out. In addition, for such a simple device there are a multitude of parts. When I change my birds' water I want to rinse out the little reservoir as well as the bottle, so what's the point of removing the bottle separately? Sure, you can pull out the reservoir at the same time, but it's clumsy.
Love!
I love the fact that, once attached, you only need to remove the actual water container in order to clean or refill.
