We want all types of waterers / feeders / brooders / incubators. Small, big, simple, complex, wood, plastic, glass etc. Everyone has different budgets, time, and use cases, so we want to capture them all!
If you can't / aren't inclined to create a page but have lots of good pictures and a write up of your design, please email them to [email protected] and we can build a page for you.
There is NO set end date for this contest. It will be determined by how many and how quickly we receive submissions.
