    Young hen stopped laying eggs

    I have an 8-month-old hen (Pidge) that started laying eggs a few months back and while it was never daily, she was laying.

    Chickens don't understand drinker cups

    My chickens are using the water cups when I refill them but they do not understand how to refill them by pushing down on the yellow tab. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know of any other water drinker that has a float system and will automatically refill?
