I just built a PVC waterer with chicken nipples and added a heater cable to keep it defrosted during the winter. The cable is attached to the exterior of the PVC pipe using special heat-resistant tape.
Any suggestions for how to keep my girls from pecking at the tape? I was thinking of putting something bad-tasting on it. Or possibly some other way to attach the heating cable to the PVC?
