You might be able to use the float and plumbing stuff to make an automatic waterer.
Great ideas but I still keep going back to the idea of a hen sitting in a commode each day to lay her egg...makes me smile! Practical? I don't know, it would be used, sort of for the reason it was created to begin with, to sit down and make a 'deposit!'
The only potential downside would be if you sold eggs, and word go out about where they really came from, you might have some 'splaining to do!
The only thing better than one toilet would be a row of stalls with one in each, just like a public bathroom--the ladies would choose their favorite stall and do their thing...still makes me laugh
A little more serious today, I think... on taking my peeps to the coop, taking them outside to the garden for the first time and about the frank discussion I felt I needed to have with them about personal hygiene-- flossing not included.
I have been derelict in my photo-shooting duties and to finally reveal the coop! But alas, it is already 1AM Monday, which means the week has begun and I still up!
When I was young my favorite books were along this line, the humorous and tender side of being with animals. The Egg and I was one that I laughed my way through. Another, the name of which eludes me at the moment, was about a man in Canada who shared his cabin home with a mountain lion. Your writing reminds me so much of these books which I enjoyed so much.
Thank you for sharing not only your adventure, but your wonderful talent!
