MJ's little flock

[MaryJanet]

Good morning MJ and everyone have a lovely day

Thank you Grammy! You too.

I'm off kayaking again. This time we're heading the other direction to see the ships graveyard.

Yes, her hubby is an Indian Brahma breeder and they have a property. She lives an a hour from me so we’re meeting halfway for coffee.

That sounds like a great way to get eggs! Way better than the store.

Very cool. I can't wait to hear about this adventure.

So far I like them very much. Easy to fill. Easy to handle.

I'm glad I didn't buy larger ones because they'd have been too heavy for me when filled.

No sunlight will get in. Does that mean there will be less slime build up?

I haven't yet seen the hens take a drink, but they will once they're accustomed.

I still get slime build up in the ones here. I put a drop or two of oxine in their water which helps.

I doubt i could safely carry a larger one once it was filled. I don't mind the small size, it will keep me changing the water regularly.

This is one advantage I've found. I change the water every day and someitmes twice a day...........then they go and drink out of the plant pot bases.

Good to know. Thanks.

I'm looking forward to it!

So far the hens haven't tried them out, but they will in time. They're beginning to realise the bottles hold water. I make a point of spladhing a little each time a hen is watching.

Maybe you should stick your toe in it

Dirty Wild Water is best!
