The fittings for the bucket are a male and female adapter......the tees for the cups are 1/2 x 1/8 x 1/2 and you should use a female adapter with a threaded plug at the end of your cup line instead of a glue cap.....that way you can clean out the line without cutting off the cap.....otherwise a great system
I run a small business called "Cowboy Quail Farm". We recently upgraded our barn basing our cage and water system off your design. I can't thank you enough for the time and care you put into these videos. You made my construction projects so easy!
the more I watch the more I learn, and the easier it is going to be when I start my Quail in the spring. Please keep putting up these wonderful videos.
Thank you Terry! You have taught me sooooo much. This is my next project. I have completed the incubator and I am working on the three tier quail cage now! About to order my eggs. Your videos are making it possible for me to raise quail. I could not have afforded it or known where to begin otherwise.
I use a union piece (I think that's what it's called) to attach to the bucket. I've never needed silicone to seal it. Also, I like the sturdiness of the pvc pipe. I'm using 1/4 and 3/8" tubing right now and it seems to have a lot of play and movement. Doing very well. I like your videos. I've recently created a self feeder that is working amazing. Contemplated J-feeders but, I think these hold more feed and only cost me
Followed your design with the addition of threaded junctions at the ends of each level of waterers and the T sections. Helps with access for a more thorough cleaning of each section. Thank you for your ideas and videos. They've been phenomenally helpful.
very nice setup and saves a lot of time. Using the compression connector is great idea, I was trying to think of something similar but cheaper and smaller. ball valve is sure handy to drain the system too. I'll follow your ideas but will put a screw off cap on a male fitting at the end of the rails.
Learned a lot from your video's. Just one suggestion. I tried the watering cups that you have a link to and my quail could never get the water by pecking at the yellow part. I tried another cup and they leaked constantly by over filling the cup. Finally found a cup that is working well for me..... RentACoop Automatic Chicken Water Nipple Cup Waterer Kit for Poultry
I wanted to support your channel by ordering from an affiliate link. But the cups are out of stock and do not look like they will be restocked. Could you update the link?
Great videos and easy explanatory. Wish to start my farm soon from watching this videos. Keep the good hard work. Get me updated please, so curious to start one.
I really appreciate your awesome videos. Curious to know what vitamins you give your birds or if you ever make/use your own colloidal silver to maintain their health? All the best.
Thank you for all the inofmation and wonderful how to's. It has helped alot. I did have a few questions. I have heard a few bad reviews of this water cup. How well is this system working for you? Are you still using this brand watering cup? Are there any improvements you would make now?
Can you post a list of the pvc cuts? I finally found all of the pieces I need, but I need the measurements. Or can you direct me to the place you have already posted the list?
I put in the quail watering system you recommended. The problem is the cups overflow. do you have a solution for this or a way to adjust the water level?
Hi Terry,I am in the UK ,I have built the cage got the cups and tees but am having difficulty getting the rest of the stuff,would you be able to send it to me from the states,obviously I would pay for this.
I've been binging on your videos today. Really thoroughly presented and good units. I have a question regarding your hutch. Why did you choose to have the doors swing up rather than down? If they go down, you wouldn't need the zip tie, would they? I'm going to start my quails in the beginning of April. I can't wait to put what I've learned from your videos in to practice. Thank-you so very much.
Only one seal/bushing would be needed since it only needs sealed from the outside of the fitting. sealing from inside bucket and outside is a double seal.
I really need help!! I keep making these and every time my tap in the bucket leaks. I don't think I'm getting the two pieces screwed together right enough. I'll do it and then silicone inside and out but as soon as I disturb the bucket the first time it all starts leaking. What am I doing wrong??
HELLO! My husband and I build your three cage enclosure with the egg roll floors. And I just recently built THIS watering system. I had some leaking issues due to not use enough glue, I fixed that but now my quail have not figured out how to peck the yellow piece in the watering cups and I have to push it and fill the little water cups for them. Have you had this issue before? If so, did your quail eventually figure out how to use the pecking cups?
Hello! I’ve been to two different Home Depot’s and Ace and can’t find the 1/2 inch coupling with 1/4 threaded part. Is there somewhere special to get it?
Hey - great video - I've watched this like 5 times, and ive been back and forth to home depot/Lowe's... specifically I'm wondering if you happen to have the specific name or part number for the bushing/coupler(s) used for direct contact with the bucket? Thanks in advance
This is the part that is inserted into the bucket. You need to get a couple garden hose washers and a standard coupling for inside the bucket.www.homedepot.com/p/Dura-Corp-1-2-in-x-3-4-in-Schedule-40-PVC-Reducing-Male-Adapter-C436-074/100346631 Get 1/2" x 1/2", not the 3/4" as pictured.
@@CoturnixCorner Thanks much -- In a few hours, I'll have everything I need for this build. I'm really excited about getting this done! NOW - off to binge on more of your videos!
Another great video! Other than having to fill them more frequently than a 5-gallon bucket, is there anything else inherently faulty with the quart Mason jar with the red, round trough? Thanks!
Terry, does the angle of the roll-out floor have a negative effect on the Mason jar waterer? Should it be positioned on the low side against the front wall to prevent tipping over?
w just build the 3 stack cage and am now working on the watering system. we are having trouble finding the 1 /2 the 1/4 T for the cups. Where can I find them.
Really liking your setup! For the height of the cup from the floor, I'm curious why 4" but not 3" or 2"? Is it to prevent the quails from jumping onto the cup? One TH-camr said that his quails had been sitting on the cups pressing onto the yellow trigger causing the whole tank of water to leak out. Would that be a concern for you as well? Just trying to think over all the details before building mine. Thanks!
I have been raising quail for about 3 years in a converted dog cage and am planning to build your cages. Wondering with your watering system if you have any suggesting for keeping them from freezing during the winter months?
I’ve seen a few guys just put a water tower in the cage in the winter. Slightly Redneck does this. A gallon milk jug with 1-1/4 holes 3 inches up is enough for 10 birds for a day. And they are free.
Great video! I wish I would have found your channel before I spent a boat load of money on "how to" quail books. Your videos are so much simpler and easy to learn from. I have av question on the welded wire vs. Hardware cloth. Pros and cons to both? Thanks so much Terry!
Used this system tried two different cups plus the correct plumbing ( Iam 70 been in the building industry all my life ) yes all the right connectors all l got was poop trays full of water the cups don’t work save your hard earned money unless you like poop trays full of water and shit
You talked about using the quart waterer for your juveniles before they learn to use the cups. My quail seem to make huge messes with that style waterers. I can't figure out exactly how they're doing it. Is that unavoidable? Or do you have any tricks to prevent this? I'm in the process of building your 3 tier style housing. So I'll be doing this watering system once that is done. But in the meantime (and for future reference with the juveniles) I was just wondering if there was a way to stop mine from leaking out all of their water.
I place a 6" square floor tile with a paper towel over it in the brooder and place the waterer on top of it, this helps keep the chicks from kicking pine shavings into the waterer. Although, you still will get an occasional bird poop in the waterer.
@@CoturnixCorner I will give that a try. That makes sense. Thank you so much. I'm really enjoying the channel. I'm going to be checking out your hatch rate video after I get this housing done. Thank you for the quality content and the great information to get started from. Much appreciated.
Hey Terry, my name is Dani, and I went step by step building this watering system and also my husband and I build your 3-stacked cage with the egg roll floor. I'm having speaking issue at one of the T fittings, do you have any solutions as to how I can fix it without destroying it?
Coturnix Corner it was leaking at the vertical T fitting along each horizontal section, I have since fixed it though. Now my watering cups are leaking so I’ll have to redo the Plummer’s tape I think. Also my birds are having trouble figuring it out. Did you have to manually fill the cups for a while?
Hi Terry, I had another question. 2 really. Would a height of 5 inches for the water cups be ok for adults only? And would 5 inches for the j feeders be ok too? I would keep any chicks or juveniles in a different cage. Thanks again. Great video!

I've had some pretty good luck using pool noodles from my local dollar store. They are less expensive than going to the hardware store for tube insulation and are made of the same material and are also much thicker. Try wrapping the bucket in those water heater unsulation blankets. Good luck!
I’m having problems with the poultry cups. The first one on the top row overflows. I’ve replaced it a couple times. And I took birds out to see if it was them playing with it. So ... any suggestions on how to fix that. I don’t know the math behind it or I’m not holding my tongue right.
Try taking the cup apart and make sure the plunger spring isn't holding the valve open. Also, could be dirt or sand in the line, try flushing the entire system and see if that doesn't clear it up. Good luck!
What sized hole saw should I purchase for 1/2” pvc couplings? I know the outer diameter is not actually 1/2” but I don’t know the outside diameter of the pipe
Thanks for your guide. It's interesting to see you don't put any PVC cement on the down tubes. I assume it doesn't leak at those points? Also, I assume you fill the orange bucket up periodically using a hose? How often do you have to do this - how thirsty do they get?
Have you considered using uniseals instead of bushings? They might be cheaper and easier for the build. I've used them for other projects with great success.
@@CoturnixCorner Thanks for replying...I have the same ones as you..I made a bucket that has 4 cups and i can press the yellow stopper and fill it and the chicks drink it but does not refill...All 4 cups dry..I wanna use these in the run but not if my birds gonna dehydrate . its setup with 1/2 pvc like you have
@@robbphillip6663 That's the way they work. There is not water in the cup until the bird pecks at the yellow plunger, then it releases a little water for them to drink. When teaching them how to use it just use your finger to half fill the cup, by the time it's empty they will know how to use it.
@@carrielinn637 Just trigger it by hand so a little water is in the bottom of the cup, they will figure it out. I have 3 - 4 week olds that know how to get a drink from a dry cup.

How do you clean those cups. Because it's obvious that birds will put some food and droppings into the cups.

Hello. I don’t think my quail know how to trigger the cup to fill with water. The cups seem to always be dry.
That's normal, what they don't drink will evaporate pretty rapidly.
My concern is they do not know how to trigger the water release. Is there anything I can do to teach them?
@@carrielinn637 Just trigger it by hand so a little water is in the bottom of the cup, they will figure it out. I have 3 - 4 week olds that know how to get a drink from a dry cup.
Coturnix Corner Okay! That’s what I’m doing. Maybe I’m watching them too close! Appreciate your help and knowledge! You are extremely helpful to a Newby!
Suamiku membenahi kandang puyuh tapi sekarang besi rusak2 lagi .
You could AT LEAST have a bit of grass or sand in the cages...poor quails ! :(
