Well.. I'd certainly be hesitant about giving them a kiddie pool with more than 2 inches of water without supervision. But I've also read about (and done myself) putting shallow pans of water in the run for them to wade in, which they seem to enjoy. I wish I had a pool to try going swimming with the chickens in. Although wouldn't the chlorine be damaging to their skin and feathers or no more than it does us?
