I tried supporting it from the bottom today and still leaking :( it didn’t leak for a few weeks so I’m wondering if something happened to it from hanging it while not supported?
I can’t see any cracks anywhere…maybe it isn’t sealing properly anymore (it’s the one that you turn upside down to fill) we are still building the run area so they are in the coop when we aren’t home so I need to have water in there during the day but I don’t want to come home to a soggy coop
We use a couple gallon plastic waterer hanging in the coop. For the first few weeks this worked great! Now it seems to be leaking all over! Is there a specific waterer made for hanging? Or should I be supporting it underneath somehow?
We had a couple gallon plastic waterer hanging in the coop which seemed to work really well at first. Now it seems to be leaking from the bottom? Is there a better waterer for hanging??
or should I be setting the waterer on something instead?
Hi! We built a 6x6 coop that is sitting on top of stone. Plywood floor on pressure treated 2x4s. Ready to install the hardware cloth to keep digging predators out. Planning on attaching to the outside of the coop a foot or two up, but how far should it go down and out away from the coop under...
Hi! New member here and new to raising backyard chickens! We have 4 hens currently in a brooder in the garage until the coop is built - hopefully by the end of this week! Looking forward to seeing the posts and getting feedback!!
