Harris Farms Heated Base, Feeders & Drinkers

What Harris Farms makes

Harris Farms is a Manna Pro brand of feeders, drinkers and small farm supplies. In our catalogue:

Heated poultry drinker base: 125 W, thermostatically controlled, listed for both metal and plastic drinkers, for indoor and outdoor use.
Galvanized hanging feeder: 15 lb, with rolled edges, a hanger handle and spring-loaded clips.
Glow-in-the-dark feeder and drinker: a 7 lb plastic feeder and a 5 quart BPA-free drinker in lime-green glowing plastic, sized for chicks, bantams or a small flock.

The Nurture Right 360 incubator also comes from the same Manna Pro family; see Nurture Right and Manna Pro.

Who Harris Farms suits

The heated base suits keepers in freezing climates who already own a fount. Because it is listed for plastic as well as metal drinkers, it covers more founts than metal-only bases. Set it on a level, dry surface, keep bedding away, and plug it into an outdoor-rated outlet; avoid long-term extension cords.

The 15 lb hanging feeder is a simple, cheap feeder for three to six hens; hang the lip at back height to cut waste. The glow feeder and drinker are small, light and easy to spot in a dim coop or brooder.
