Broiler breeders are large

birds that strike the drinkers

with much more force when

compared to other types of

poultry. This can lead to

water spillage and drinkers

that wear out too quickly.

Ziggity’s Big Z is the only

fully enclosed drinker

engineered to solve

these problems.

Big Z Drinkers are

engineered with exacting

tolerances that deliver all of

the hygienic water broiler

breeders need, while keeping

litter and slats dry. And a

dry house means far less

ammonia release that directly

improves bird welfare.

Because Big Z Drinkers are

much larger and much more

durable than conventional

nipples or standard drinkers,

they are also far more

resistant to wear and water

spillage. So Big Z keeps

performing year after year,

affording enhanced laying

performance, feed efficiency

and livability.

Our 10-year prorated

warranty is all the

assurance you need. It is

another example of how

Ziggity improves results

through innovation.

Big Z Shielded Drinker for Females This dedicated female shielded drinker promotes drinking at the proper angle to minimize water spillage - especially important when males attempt to drink from the female drinker line.

Standard Drinker DO NOT attempt to use standard-sized drinkers in Broiler Breeder Applications.Big Z Drinker for Males

This dedicated male drinker is positioned off the floor much higher than the female drinker - so high in fact that females cannot reach it, which is the reason the shield is not necessary.

Tough enough to effectively water large birds.

Ziggity’s Big Z Broiler Breeder watering system addresses the size difference between the male and female broiler breeder. Because male breeders are much taller than their female counterparts, their separate and dedicated drinker lines are positioned much higher off the floor while the female dedicated lines are positioned much lower. This gender dedicated setup means that both males and females can efficiently obtain all the hygienic water they need as their dedicated drinkers are positioned at the correct height for heads up drinking that minimizes or eliminates spillage. And that means less ammonia release, better bird welfare and a more productive environment.
