I am in Moore. I work on Saturdays (I work everyday) but anyway, I plan to sneak out the backdoor on Saturday long enough to run over to Shawnee for a few minutes...buy, buy, buy...then back to work before the inmates at my shop burn the assylum down. I am going to try to go to Blanchard later.

The most fragile bantams like the Silkies have their very own shed this year instead of a pen with housing and the bantam RIRs will go in there as well.

The layers are right by a hydrant so it's no problem keeping them in water plus I use one of the large black tubs and on cold nights it just does skim over. When I emptied it yesterday it only had about three inces of ice on the top. I also have it mostly buried in the ground which helps a bunch except for long cold spells.

We do have stock tank heaters but Hotshot and Red will pluck them out in half a heartbeat and toss them on the ground. Had Goldfish in a tank a few years ago too when Hotshot was a colt, yep he caught them too. We had a float valve on the tank so it didn't get low, he just went bobbing for fish.

I once saw a water system for rabbits that had a heating element running through it but I have not been able to find it again. It had the nipple drinkers instead of cups. The supply was a five gallon heated bucket.

They do make a heated fuel line for trucks but I don't know just how warm the water would be using that. An advantage would be that it runs off of 12v and is thermostated.
