No experience with either but from what I understand the saddle types are for pvc round pipe and the threaded ones are for flat surfaces. Being that the small pvc pipe is smaller the water will heat up faster if it's not consumed quickly. (Think of a garden hose). A larger quantity in a five...
from all the sites I've seen, the shipping is more expensive than the chicks themselves. A lot also have minimum numbers to order, I'd still be ordering excess chicks. From my research, buff orpingtons, leghorns, and barred rocks are what I want. I'm open to suggestions but I really just want a...
