Zusammenfassung:A poultry watering system is provided having a support conduit integrally formed within a flange extending from and integrally formed with a fluid conduit. That flange further includes a snap-fit connection to a hanger bracket which also mounts a two wire anti-roosting device. The fluid conduit also includes saddle flanges retained via snap-fit which shield the saddles and associated drinker devices from run off. When so retained, the saddles penetrate the fluid conduit and permit fluid flow to the drinker devices. The fluid conduit, its flanges and the support conduit can be extruded as a unitary element from PVC plastic materials while other materials can be employed for the saddle and drinker devices to minimize costs without loss of system effectiveness in performance. Additional stability of the system may be attained (if necessary) by housing a stabilizing member in the support conduit.
