    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Yup, very true!! And I'm guilty of sometimes not being consistent but then when I try to be, my dad isn't! And haha very true!!!! You know, I actually heard of a chicken training workshop! Supposedly it helps with dog training, teaching kids, etc etc. I was gonna do it but decided not to but i...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    That actually makes a lot of sense! And you know, it's actually sort of funny because I'm really into dogs and dog training and stuff too, at least with my own, (haven't done it in a while though, gotta start again), especially the positive and behavior science bits and stuff, and I sort of knew...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Yeah, mine figured it out just recently, maybe a couple weeks or a month ago now (time flies xD ) when i started giving BOSS and corn frequently lol and oh that's a good idea! I sort of almost lost interest and didn't spend much time with mine and i kinda regret it :/ i dont think lost interest...

    Aw yeah, my Barred Rocks (when I still had the other) and the Easter Eggers were the boldest and most adventurous even from day 1! Now the EEs are the most skittish or fastest at least. The Orpingtons are friendliest in terms of once I catch them they sometimes relax (one in particular, one is...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Ahhh okay, that makes sense! Definitely don't want to waste water or for any birds to get dehydrated! I did manage to find another block of wood after this but it's still not quite high enough or stable enough for my liking so maybe I will invest in something. But yeah, they are definitely...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Filled it more and plopped it up on some different looking bricks (2 longer ones with holes and glued together) and a block of wood (it was ground level) but I still feel like it's too low or at least, not neck height. I don't know, thoughts? Maybe I'm getting too hung up on neck height? The...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Yeah, it's definitely a good sign. And yeah, that's true, I gotta find some. And yeah I know theoretically it should be njce, and technically is, that they did that so normally I would appreciate it but it's just it wasn't entirely necessary, especially if the other waterer is still out there...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    And turns out someone put the new waterer out already. I'm kind of annoyed because I wanted to do it and it's also ground level instead of neck height and the other waterer is still out there BUT Watching from the bathroom window (just woke up... fell back asleep :/ ) they appear to already...

    Not sure yet! I fell back asleep :/ lol And yup, it definitely is funny! I guess with no roo one has to take over lol and yeah, it's so odd! Yet funny And thanks!

    And the barred rock usually leads the way i have noticed, in fact, free ranging yesterday, she tried to head in the woods a few times and slowly some others followed then when she decided to come back and half flew to this one section, everybody followed. Leading them to trouble and misbehavior...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Forgot to post but my dad got mad cause it was too much weight for the sink (he had said it earlier but i didn't think there was a real reason) and wanted to put it outside but so we just decided to empty it and he said if it leaks, we'll find out when it's out there. I think that's kind of...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Thank you! Think it was a little less than halfway so decided to just go ahead and fill it all the way and we'll see :) And maybe stupid question but how will we know if it's leaking? Large amounts of water missing? Or water on the sides? Or?

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    My dad seems to think that it will be fine so I have put it in the sink and we will see! Hoping they will be! Don't have it all the way full though, should I fill it more to test what it will really be like or is it if it leaks, it will leak no matter how full?? And ah well that makes sense...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Thank you for your help! And for explaining all that and/or being so nice about it instead of just thinking I'm crazy or dumb or something for wanting them so tight aha they definitely are tricky! So do you think that I should just take them out and start over or do you think it will be okay...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Thanks for the input! Yeah, he definitely may have been right! But ah well, worst case scenario is we just toss this bucket and use another one or little bigger drill bit :) I just filled it and so far so good but I will leave it in the sink! I have it on the floor now lol

    Making the feeder next. Probably tomorrow or later in the week. Sadly, it looks like only one elbow can fit instead of 2 like I thought but maybe cut it will fit. We'll see. If not I'll return 2. Or keep in case we mess the cut up :P Plan on making at least 2 anyway and...

    New waterer and feeder! (And slight troubles w/waterer)

    Made my waterer today :D Only issue is it's kinda bulging? My dad had said it wouldn't tighten more but it was sticking out like a 1/4 or 1/2 inch and i didnt wanna leave it out that far and made him tighten more. Thinking I should have just left it. But oh well. He also decided...
