Improved poultry watering apparatus and an improved method of causing the birds to water effectively is described. The principle of operation is to provide means for bubbling small jets of air bubbles through the watering basin or reservoir to create the sound of gurgling or bubbling water. The combined sight and sound of the moving, bubbling water surface has been found to provide very great attractive powers to all sorts of poultry and, in particular, to turkeys, causing them to water steadily and effectively for proper weight and growth performance.

An improved method of watering poultry using a water reservior comprising steps of: filling a reservior with water; injecting at least one stream of compressed air into said water reservior at a point beneath the surface of the water to create a stream of air bubbles therein; and exposing the surface of the water reservior in the vicinity of the point where said rising bubbles burst so that the poultry may see and hear the gurgling and bubbling action produced by the stream of bubbles.
