Granny's gone and done it again

see, I wonder if my hose was up in the air close to the coop then I would have to unhook it from the house and it would drain ?

Only if it were down hill all the way. If there is a dip and then uphill to the house, probably not.

You have to have a well. You have to pour water in the top of the pump to prime it. Then you pump the handle up and down and water pours out. But it might freeze up in winter unless you got a frost free one.

DD's MIL is back in the hospital. She was diagnosed with stage 4 Lymphoma 4 weeks ago. She has had 1 really really potent chemo treatment so far. This has lowered her white blood count so dangerously low that they gave her some shots this week to try to increase her count. She was rushed to the hospital a day ago in such severe pain. They have kept her to try to control her pain & her WBC is so critically low that no one can even be with her out of fear that they might bring a bug in that could kill her. Her oncologist said she has only had this cancer for a few months but it has rapidly spread to 5 locations. Would love it if anyone would include her in your prayers.

Those are called a hydrant granny & they are hard to lift that handle. You might not have the strength
