"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

Does anyone currently use a watering systems where the water is collected when it rains and you use the rain water to water your animals?

I was given several 250 gallon tanks and I am trying to get my watering system together (or at least by next summer).

I don’t, but Inglewood has several wells sank & they use those to fill up a big tank on a trailer & pull it out to the chicken bus & the ducks & fill up their waterers from that.

I would guess you could use gutters to channel the rainwater into the tanks & then get it out to your flocks w/a trailer you could hook behind your lawn tractor.

Every were is soo beautiful here . Primrose I think it is the mountain air more oxygen in it here. Pam


It's that purity. It's like getting cooled down pure oxygen. My first autumn there I came over a hill driving and saw a tree that was so brilliant that I almost wreaked my car. Shockingly brilliant color. My first snow, I woke up before dawn. It was so quiet. I thought the sun was up because the moonlight on the snow was so bright. Amazing.

Good morning everyone.

I was out last night in the chicken yard and I looked back and this is what I saw, so I had to grab my phone and take a pic. The eyes are really creepy looking. The duck numbers have creeped up on me. I didn't realize that I had so many ducks total. The count last night was 110 muscovy ducks. :oops:

That reminds of when I married Jim (34 yrs ago) & went to Wisconsin for the first time. So help me, all of my life I thought those fall colors were somehow faked. I didn’t see how they could possibly be real.

I was so wrong. We hit the height of the autumn colors & it was the most magnificent thing I’ve ever seen. I did a painting after I got back home that still hangs in our living room.

Been back a lot of times over the years but always remember that first trip.
