Poltek 3 & 4 Lt Anti - Drown Ring
Give your chicks the safest possible start with the Poltek Anti-Drown Ring, a simple, effective accessory designed to significantly reduce the risk of drowning and water-related illness in Poltek 3lt and 4lt Water Founts. During the vulnerable brooding phase, even shallow water can pose serious risks, including bronchial disease. This ring limits water surface exposure in the trough, helping to keep young chicks dry, safe, and healthy.

- Durable Material: Manufactured from high-quality plastic for longevity and easy cleaning.
- Removable Design: Can be easily removed once chicks grow and the risk subsides.
The first days of a chick’s life are a critical time for survival. Ensuring safe and hygienic access to water is essential, not only to prevent drowning but also to avoid complications such as bronchial disease, often caused by wet chests.
