    Cheap homemade chicken nipple waterer

    Feather Farm - try glycerol aka glycerine - the food grade stuff! Add a little to the water and you can stop water freezing down to -18c or less.

    Oh no, it's not a Brahma!

    He's so laid back its a wonder he doesn't fall off his perch! I guess I need some better pics to get to the bottom of this. Not that it matters too much, I love him all the same. Maybe I'm getting sentimental in my old age.
