  • Since all the water drains below the frostline after each use, Drinking Post can sit unused for long periods of time without the need for any preparation or planning.  Just stop using it!
  • This is great for fluctuating herd sizes and rotational grazing – move your cattle around freely without having to worry about their water.

Almost everyone watering cattle has to struggle with water.  Is it dirty, too hot, too cold?  Is it empty?  Is it overflowing? Did the power go out?  Is there a short?  … and it almost never ends.   This is called ‘doing it the hard way’.  When there is standing water around cattle it will inevitably get dirty, or hot, or frozen.

 
Drinking Post Automatic Cattle Waterer is the best automatic waterer for cattle because we eliminate the stagnant, standing water.  Drinking Post Automatic Cattle Waterer provides water on-demand. This means when your cattle are not actively drinking, there is no water above ground.  When they push on the paddle to activate the on-demand water, fresh, clean water fills the bowl.  

 

It’s so easy.  Your cattle will water themselves!
