Thanks. Prety sinple design. 5 gallon bucket. Union & ball valve so i can take off the bucket to clean it , couple of 45s & pvc. Then thats the oasis type no peck water dispenser cups. There nice but u do have to check them almost daily bc they do come out the hinge pretty easy if u got wreckless birds. I used pvc glue to keep it all leakproof.

Welcome to BYC! We’re so glad you joined us here!
I love your watering system!

So far with the way i made this auto feeder there’s no loss of feed . I did kinda copy a youtube vid of no waste chicken feeder. Just made mine alot wider.

Hi and welcome! Does "Jus10" mean Justin? Sounds like a varied and interesting flock. We have 5 Brown Leghorn and 7 Easter Egger hens, 12 Black Australorp pullets, plus one mutt rooster and one Black Jersey Giant cockerel. Aren't chickens fun?

I don't know what's going on in your area, but some of our members in different areas are buying/ selling etc., one is even going to auctions I think. It's just really important, if you go public places, to practice good health practices: wear a mask, wash hands, don't shake hands, do social distancing, you know the drill! Or you could buy and sell on craigslist. Also, check out the for sale area here on the forum for your area, go to the home page and you'll find it there. Good luck!

craigslist is a joke for poultry here. Our swap shops arent back open yet. this area of Louisiana is still a major hot spot. Imma check out the for sale section for sure
