    Newbe building a coop

    Here some photos of my chickens(brown leghorns) and coop pics.I lost 1 chicken of cocydliosis but the vet told me what it was and gave me meds so Bonnie was the only casualty but we had separated her early on I had seen the smallest chicken being picked on And her wings droupping.Very sad.

    Official BYC Poll: Which waterer is better: Nipples or cups?

    I bought a 3gallon bucket with 4 vertical nipples and I love it and keep it hanging in the run. My old-fashioned galvanized waterer hangs in the coop about 6" off the floor.All is good in Folsom chicken prison!

    My 3 chickens adapted very quickly to the vertical nipples bucket arrangement from tractor supply.

    My garden has been productive with the cucumbers so I split them and freeze them and put them in a shallow pan of water.

    Official BYC Poll: Which waterer is better: Nipples or cups?

    I've observed my chickens filling there beaks with water and than tilting there heads back(imagine glug glug glug) so I can see the dehydrated argument
