We'll put it down as overworked and undercaffinated! :lol: Ok mom... :gig
LOL good girl!
Sally this is your 44444 post! Good to save it!
oh lol thats ok Benny question for you, is it true that using a garden hose to fill waterers is really bad for chickens and they use some lead to make the brass nozzels and such? Do the associated toxins such as the bisphenol A plastics, harm chickens and in turn us? There was a discussion on FB and someone posted that the levels are 20% above what is safe for drinking???

I don't know for sure, I should check but l know this: 1. The bisphenol A emissions is dependent on the water temperature as they are hoter mor emissions. And because the water in the hose is cold I dont see any problems there. IMO the plastic container that stay full of water in hot dayes outside can be a bigger problem 2. Abaout the nuzzle if it made from brass it should mot have any led in it so dont see the problem, but if we assume that the alloyed is contaminated with led, it is in neglected amount, and especially becous the water rush trough it and dont set for long time like the situation could be if the water tubing were made of led.
My hoses get really hot during the day dont yours? ok and I saw no links I didnt google it either, just so many agreed with it I thought I would ask.
yes they did, but you canned meat, that has to get to a certain temperature. You have your booklet? I couldnt find mine when I canned soup last time. Else ask Wingstone on FB?
I do. But we are so paranoid anymore, they now say all canned goods must be used or tossed within 12 months.
yes I agree, and then canned stuff lasts so much longer
Well time to motivate and rotate.have a great day everyone. Phone is almost dead again. Will pop in as soon as I get a chick zipped.
have a great day, good luck
Tried to find in Google scholar didn't find anything, yes they do but I never let it stay full of water, I always close the tap, to be on the safe side let the water flow for 30 seconds before you fill the waterers

our hose is run very long to reach coops, water shut off is not readily accessible ughhh.
 
I run the hose till the water is cold, because the chickens like cool water.... So I guess I have been doing whats recommended without even trying!

cool Benny!
How 'bout a molded plastic pond liner, a small one, like for ornamental back yards? Deeper than you need, but should work.
yes but they are expensive arent they? I was looking at the cement mixers but they are fairly small, would be ok in the winter perhaps.
I'm not sure anymore; we bought our's years ago.
