    EBAY- "Custom made automatic chicken waterer"

    This is the most brilliant idea overall I've found! A 5 gallon bucket with lid, holes on sides for the chicken heads to fit through with a plumbing float inside that keeps the water fresh just below the holes. Very sturdy, especially when placed on a couple cinder blocks to raise it off the...

    Favorite hen suddenly lethargic...SOS! New to chickens!

    She looks better today...guess I survived my first sick chicken and now I know that perhaps all ailments do not lead to a certain death. Thanks again for your support and expertise! :)

    Favorite hen suddenly lethargic...SOS! New to chickens!

    Just sat in the coop with all of them and she is eating and drinking then stands in the corner and closes her eyes. She did have a very watery poop. Comb drooping over more than usual. Checked again for lice or mites to the best of my ability and nothing. I do dust the coop weekly with DE...

    Favorite hen suddenly lethargic...SOS! New to chickens!

    I have used the rodent water bottle for chicks of all kinds including quail and its worked well. I offer the big hens the regular waterer though due to the large amount of "water gulping" they do.

    We have the 3 marans which we got at auction. Finally have started to lay a few eggs. One has what we refer to as a "bald butt" but appears to still lay. What causes complete loss of feathers under the tail feathers?? Is it a problem for her...her 2 sisters do not have this. Thanks for input.
