This and the 5 gallon version of this product are more disappointing products from Little Giant. I had to modify the handles on these to get them to hang straight enough to not leak (I...

2 Gallon Double Wall Fount

If these waterers aren't fairly level they leak -- that's pretty obvious. We don't have a lot of flat level spots in our chicken areas, so decided to hang our waterers and let gravity level them...

The deadline will be based on the number of submissions we receive and how quickly we get them. Usually we wait for at least 20 - 30 submissions. Once we get "enough" we'll give everyone at least 1 week notice before the contest ends so they can put final touches on their submissions.

Oh, and remember that you pages can be updated any time before, during, or after the contest!

[Hi everyone~ Below is the link to my page.

Thanks for all the great ideas out there - we really appreciate it and it helped us finally take the plunge!

Our coop is about 90% done, so I don't have a final tally for costs yet. I will update it as that happens.

Here is what we have so far:

wow nice coops.
I was waiting and waiting for the coop contest to come up on the index page and then I thought I should look in the coops section and there it was. I just finished making a chicken tractor. I will enter as soon as I make my page.

People who count their chickens before they are hatched act very wisely, because chickens run about so absurdly that it is impossible to count them accurately.
