HOW OFTEN DO YOU....

[Mahonri]

Mine get fresh water at least once a day and most often twice.

I usually do it once a day unless of course the turkey decides to step in it or flip it over... they are like 5x a day min.

I use rubber bowls.

Twice daily to ensure fresh, clean water that is free of contaiminants like droppings, shavings, or feed.

Can't wait to get a self watering system either...

 

[Rhett&SarahsMom]

every other day. I check it daily and keep it filled. Smart girls let me know when they are low on food/water.

I change ( 2 ) 3 gal. waterers every other day and I clean them at the same time. I also have several bowl type's that I fill several time a day depending on how many times they run throught it, spill it etc. I have several CLAN'S that don't share well so this is why I have the bowls. I also do Chicken Patrol twice a day to make sure Everyone gets food.

Inside the coop my five have a rabbit bottle that I fill when it needs it. To be honest, I don't know if the new girls know about it, but I think they do since I know Mudgie drinks from it. She has had it since she was a chick.

They have a regular waterer outside that I rinse out and fill daily...or every other day if it doesn't look too disgusting.

I change the water every day and do a thorough cleaning of waterers every week. In hot weather, I often change the water twice.

mine average about a day and a half. If they are really dirty I change it, if theres grass and stuff in it I dump it out but I check on it at least 2x a day. I have one gallon waterer for 8 chickens. When its hot I put ice in them daily.
