I live in a non freezing area and I have a dish waterer that hooks up to the spiget for my dogs and an auto waterer hooked up to a spiget for my horse that is the same only holds about 3 gallons. Other than a possible drowning issue in the larger horse type livestock waterer, would there be any reason at all not to use a dog dish size auto waterer for my chickens (I don't have any chicks under 8 weeks where it would be)? I have seen lots of things under this forum but haven't found that specific question, answer, or picture and really want to know if there is a reason not to use this as I am really getting tired of the large metal conatiner & I can't put ACVB in it and so was looking at different options. Thanks in advance.
