    Tip of Roosters Beak Broke Off

    The tip of my roosters beak has broke off. I know this is not a big issue as long as he can still pick up food. I'm not worried about the hard part of his beak that broke, as it simply broke into a smaller beak shape with a slight underbite. The problem is that the soft inner part of his beak...

    Watering-why didn't I think of this before?

    I use a 50gal drum, inverted with a self filling watering bowl. I tapped the bottom (which is now the top) with a 1 1/2" threaded piece of pipe, and a cap to keep debris, insects, etc from entering, and allows me to fill with a garden hose. works great, and don't have to fill often.
