4.5 Hutching in
Starter Ball:
At the first control (approx. ½ hour after hutching in) you have to put a Starter Ball
into every cup.
Check the adjustment of the height. If necessary the drinking line has to be adjusted
to the height of the animals.
With inserting the Starter Ball the water calls attention to the animals. Except for
that the Starter Ball helps to bring the water level to a reachable level for the
animals. Thereby the ball disposes the Pendulum at an empty cup, so that the
turkey nipple opens. The water runs into the cup until the ball swims. Because of
the form of the cup and the bigness of the Starter Ball the Pendulum gets into a
vertical position. The turkey nipple closes at the reached water level.
You can put the Starter Ball into the cup before hutching in. Adhere to the warming of
the water. Basically the animals should get fresh and cool water. The water has to be
well accessable and easy to find for the animals.
Please take care of the correct height adjustment of the drinking lines. The height
has to fit to the height of the animals. A later adjustment after littering can be
necessary in the beginning!
4.6 While rearing
The height adjustment has to be observed! A too low adjusted drinking line is easyer
to pollute and drinking water can be wasted.
At the third day you could start to take away the Starter Balls. At first every second
ball can be taken away. To the fifth day all balls can be taken away.
4.7 While fattening
The height adjustement is ideal when the animals can stand upright and drink easily
with a slight angled head and when they touch the edge of the cups slightly.
4.8 Between the circles
At the end of each circle the LUBING turkey drinker EasyLine has to be well cleaned
and flushed.
