In the Brooder
Hello! I have 6 RSL pullets that are about a month old. They are still being brooded inside in a large dog crate. They still have ample amount of room in the crate but they have outgrown their waterer/feeder or more making it their perches/bathroom and just knocking it over. I am using a regular small poultry waterer wig the screw on mason jar, this is propped up on a brick and they perch on top. I use a medium ceramic planter dish with a TALL mason jar on top filled with feed and I just lift the jar up to release the feed when it gets low. This is also up on a brick to keep the shavings and waste out. They fly up on it and knock it over every day. SO my question is should I just switch to the large waterer and feeder even though when they go out in the coop I am going to be using the pvc pipe feeder and hanging the waterer. Im afraid this is going to take up most of the room in the brooder. They will be going outisde soo. I just don't know what to do in the mean time!!
