Hello,
We have been raising chickens for 8 years in Phoenix and as you know it can get HOT in the summer. We do a lot of things to help keep the girls cool, but I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on a way to insulate a short piece of hose to help keep the water cooler? We ran a pipe underground to attaching the watering dish and hose and I want to put a second waterer up now that we have more chickens. This will require running a short hose from the source. I had originally wrapped the hose in a pool noodle but the crazy chickens pecked that all off. Any one else have any luck?
Thanks
