Hi there, I love it, no issue with it at all! It still drains quickly and easily, a little sand gets in the tub bottom but very little and I have either hosed it towards the drain or just left it in there (sand really helps keep it clean), any little feathers are easy to just remove after the...

You can make yourself one, so very easy to do even for a beginner. I have a detailed video on it. You wouldn't even need to do the fancy way we did the corners. A circular saw and a jigsaw and a drill and you are all set as far as the wood part goes. The PVC plumbing and all that is very easy...

So cute! Hey why not right! How does it drain out? Where does the water go?

:yuckyuck Haha they do have it pretty good I guess! ;)

Thank you and that is one of the reasons I did not want this in the ground. I have had no issues with it getting clogged. Being raised it does an excellent job flushing anything out due to water pressure, I used a 1 1/2" pipe, well actually its 2" and then just outside the tub i used a reducer...

I have done my research and find it is harmless, ingested may be harmful such as horses chewing on a fence, but so would a lot of things ingested. It is not made with arsenic and from what I see is now pretty harmless. To each there own however and some may still not feel comfortable using it...

Thank you very much :)

It is treated 2x6s and treated pine fence panels for the top (which is not treated in the same way it used to be), and no, no worry of splinters, if that is a concern you can just give the top a quick sanding. I eventually plan to use an exterior poly on the very top board just to make it extra...

I know I got lucky! He was selling them for $35 but ended up just charging us $25 and it was in very good condition too. The wood and plumbing was only another like $60 -65, so all in all very inexpensive. I use coarse sand in my run which keeps it very clean and also keeps the water clean. Also...

Thank you! They either fly out or hop out and onto the ledge and then hop onto the big stump or just fly off from the ledge. They have absolutely no problems both getting in (once I showed them what it was) or out without the need for a ramp. I do suggest either stumps like I'm using to get up...

Hey there, I have been a member for a long time but not active. I keep both chickens and ducks, in the same run, and recently built a raised duck pond for my ducks. I've used kiddie pools for years as well as those black plastic things found in feed stores, all did the job but I wanted something...

Well I have been through hurricanes Andrew and Gloria and they will pick up anything not tied down. They will pick up a trailer (mobile home) and flip it. There is also the possibility of it spawning tornadoes too.

Even if you staked that coop if winds are strong enough it won't stand a chance. You are probably better off bringing them in if possible or even letting them loose if your yard is fenced in at least then they could find a place and hunker down. My coop is part of a large shed that is tied down...

I'm on here figuring out what to do too. My coop is also part of a long shed that is tied and cemented with hurricane straps but there are huge pines and other trees right beside it and one huge pine in the run. I don't know if I ought to lock up my 6 chickens and 2 ducks in the coop or let them...

I kept chickens going on 10 years and never owned a rooster. This last winter I was down to two hens before I ordered 4 more pullets. At dawn one morning I heard what sounded like a gurgled crow of a rooster coming from one of my hens (this was just before I bought the 4other hens) and thought...

Hi, I just thought I would share my thoughts on raising ducks, and in a small neighborhood for those who have been considering them but were unsure due to noise and care (including the mess they would make). I have raised a small flock of 8 or less hens for the past 9 years. I live outside of...

I don't know your temps and that may be an issue for you I don't know, but I had mine out of their brooder at that time and made a 5x5 ft pen out of PVC pipe and heavy duty plastic poultry netting held on by zip ties with bird netting (it's what I had) over top. They are in this all day with...

Yes they are very messy, mine are about 5 weeks or maybe it's 6, I lose track. I was using pretty much the same set up but the food still got wet as the water would be dripping from their mouth after dunking their heads and bills in the water after every bite and back I the food tray. It does...

That's good to hear. Right now I just put there feed in a small tray type thing and every time they go from food to water it gets all wet which is why I was concerned. I hope it works, I will try putting their water no so close to the feed container too. I am glad to hear yours eat out of that...

This is a 110 gal for $64 at TS with a drain.
