I was planning to do that, but then worried that if I didn't get up early enough the chickens might not have enough water access. I'm kinda erratic with when I wake up, and might have to consider an automatic door at some point, but don't want to to start.Chickens don't eat or drink at night. We keep the feed in the coop at night and lock it in with the chickens just to keep it and them safe from predators, varmints and weather. The water stays outside so it does not increase humidity in the coop, which could be disastrous in winter, leading to possible frostbite on combs.
