It's not easy for sure. It would be nice to have running water to each pen with the pipe wrapped in heat tape. They would always have clean fresh water that way and feeding time would be cut more than half. My idea coop is having all the birds with an inside pen in a building and their runs on the outside. That way I could run electricity to their pens and they would still always have unfrozen water. I wouldn't have to be outside going from pen to pen packing water jugs and buckets of feed everyday. I have it pictured in my mind. It would be perfect. I wouldn't have to move things out of my walk way from the kids just tossing their crap in there from the door. It would be just for the chickens, feed and supplies.
Hey, a girl can dream.

We went by there yesterday for feed. These guys are so friendly! Several of them were really excited and promoting the show next weekend too Herb.....Timbo said you wanted a burbon red tom. I have an extra for sale if you want me to bring it. He's young, just a year old this spring. Sent from my SCH-I605 using proboards

I've always got some for sale it seems. I have 2 sold already. Out of the older ones in the grow pen i'm only keeping a couple just to see how they feather out. I may still sell them.

I think I'll be there. I'm trying to decide how many and which chickens to bring. Does anything have to be done to enter before Saturday morning? Tim, do you have any idea yet how many plan to participate?
