Chicken waterers, sometimes called poultry fountains, have been in use since the mid-19th century, utilizing the same principle of design, but made from several different materials. Presented by Marty Schlabach to the Western New York Antique Tool Collectors Association, Nov 3, 2019.

8. “English and American country potters made a bell-shaped
dome of earthenware (and later of stoneware) with a knob or
handle on the top, and a small round hole about an inch from
the bottom edge. They also made a matching shallow dish,
with a wider circumference than the dome.
To use the two-piece ‘chick waterers,’ or poultry fountains, the
farmer (or more likely the farmer’s wife) would turn the dome
upside down and fill it with fresh water. She would then set the
dish over the base of the dome while it is still upside down, and
flip the two over together and set them on the coop floor or in
the barnyard. A vacuum formed in the top of the fountain so
that the water in the dome would fill the dish to the level of the
hole in the dome, but not spill out. As chickens drank, more
water was let out of the dome into the dish.“

Cornell Galvanized Iron Drinking Fountain
The {Darnell Drinking Fountain: are made of heavy
galvanized iron, double-seamed, carefully turned and
soldered. They are conical in shape, so that in
freezing weather the pressure of the ice inside will
not split the seam. The top is also conical, and
prevents the fowls from roosting and polluting the
water. The pans are of pressed iron, heavily gal-
vanizcd.
The construction and the material are both 9833'

These fountains can be nested in shipping, so as
