New Watering Method

Rather than filling glass jars for the chickens which just get nasty and filled with bedding chips, we are trying something a little different.

We picked up a few of these:

And affixed them in the bottom of a bucket. The bucket is filled with water and suspended over the chickens. Using this method, we don't have to fill their water as often, we estimate about once a week or so. The nozzles are made for use with no water-pressure, just gravity and they pass through a surprising amount of water. They just wander up and start drinking; no fuss, no muss, and clean water for all!

I'll let the pictures and videos speak for themselves:
