Hi!
Being new to chickens, I get a little neurotic. I used to water them with a canister thing, but it was really too big, and the water got full of grass and dirt pretty fast. So now I use a plastic bowl. I see them drink out of it occasionally, but not all of the time. I'm sure they're getting water off of and out of the grass and veggies they get, but I'm giving them oatmeal, scratch, and pelleted food, and I don't want them to get bound up (that may not even be a real problem). Especially in the cold, is there a waterer that is the best? Do all of you use different types? I'd be curious to hear about what others are using...
Thanks!
