Pekino

The animal-friendly cup drinker for ducks

Pekino is a drinker for ducks developed in cooperation with the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences and other experienced experts. The Pekino drinker ideally meets the natural and biological requirements of ducks regarding water. The cup’s special design enables the ducks to easily drink from the cup, wash their bill and even submerge their entire head. These are important prerequisites to keep the ducks healthy, leading to ideal fattening results.

  • More water can flow into the cup when the duck nudges the mobile pendulum
  • Reduces water losses due to overflowing
