Has anyone used this bottle with parakeets? Does it come with the 7/16 or 5/16 nipple?

It works with all birds and nipple size doesn't matter as they all can get water out of this bottle

The Lixit bottle comes with a 7/16" OD nozzle and the actual opening is 5/16". The bottle hold 16oz of water, which is far more that what your bird, or birds will drink in one or two days. As for parakeets drinking from a lixit bottle - sure, why not? They are intelligent birds. However, this will take time on your part for a week or two to get your bird(s) used to drinking this way. But, the effort and patience on your part will be well worth it over all. No more dunking food in the water, no more bathing and best of all, no more poop!

Typically, you need to read the fine print but most of these 8 ounce bottles come with medium flow nipples. The smaller bottles come with infant slow flow nipples naturally. If you think about the size, the 4oz. bottles should have the slower flow and the 8oz. bottles should have the faster flow. I recommend buying the exact flow you want for your individual infant or child.

yes. i have bought nipples separately and they have worked just fine. i ended up having to go back to level 1 nipples for my son and had no problem (the bottles came with level 2). hope this helps!

We have used a couple of different nipples and most of brands seem to fit , Dr. Browns slow flow and we like that the best. Its much better than the nipples that comes with the bottles.

YES! Just got them for the Avent Naturals bottles. I have both the glass bottles and the plastic bottles. They work on both. It's not as tight a fit as the regular nipple, but there are NO leaks.

You'll need the connection to the pvc pipe, and I would say at least a 3 ft length of pipe to put all the nipples on, spaced out enough so they could potentially all be used by six birds at once. I don't recall the drill bit size, but I believe you get that info when you receive them. I would recommend some Teflon tape on each nipple before screwing into the pipe, too. Have Fun!!! ;)

I have both the Avent Classic and Avent Natural bottles; the systems work quite well together - sippy cup spouts, breast pump, and sealing discs fit well on both systems. Avent Classic has an extra ring in the assembly (on top of the bottle directly, before doing the screw-top portion with the nipple), which the Naturals seems to have integrated into the bottle itself.While I've not used THIS specific sippy spout, I've found everything I've used on one system can fit on the other. Including nipples and the rings -- you're not *supposed* to mix and match the nipples and bottles, but you can.

Have not used with Avent bottles, But looked at the size and it fits in. I would say better than Avent, it is more like the nipple, and has a flat side to perfectly fit the infants mouth, and that makes it easier to suck the milk out.

Yes, any 5-oz bottle fits fine, or take out the top tray designed for nipples and tops, and you can use taller bottles. I use this bad boy for everything BUT Tommee Tippee bottles (neither of my twins will take these, of course because we bought a bajillion of them). Pump parts, bottles, pacifiers, even some toys have made their way in here. I load it up however things will fit! It works great.

The boon one (green and white) fits 4 nipples in the top part of the basket. Love these bottles!!

Mine did not come with it either, the nipple and lids seem to work pretty good though. We love these bottles.

I'm not sure of the nipple size although not particularly large I'd recommend a smaller size for newborns. . Yes our order came with 4 different pleasantly coloured bottle skins.

Thank you for your question. Our 9 oz. Bottles come with a soft silicone level 2 nipple. The level 3 nipple can be purchased separately.

I have the glass bottles and a plastic sippy cup and they both use the same type of nipple. I wondered this same question and thought perhaps it had something to do with the bottle being plastic or glass. Otherwise I wanted glass anyways so I guess it didn't matter enough for me to put out a question about it. Call the company.

The 9oz bottle comes with the Fast Flow nipple. You can buy the Slow Flow nipple separately which I would recommend as my daughter used Slow Flow till she was well into her sixth month. Make sure you order nipples for the "Wide" bottle. The Standard bottle nipples are smaller. You can use the vent disks for both sizes but the nipples are different depending on the bottle: Standard or Wide. Standard also has Medium Flow nipples available for purchase separately which is convenient as a transition from Slow to Fast. I would recommend the Standard bottles over the Wide bottles for this reason plus they are slimmer so take up less room in the diaper bag! The 9oz bottle comes with the Fast Flow nipple.

Yes slow flow nipple come standard. Though you may want to check out the "variable flow" or "y cut" its flow depends on how hard the baby sucks. I had lots of success.
