Scott this is my setup. I have four 15 gallon barrels. I drilled a hole in the bottom and put a valve stem through it. Connected 3/8 tubing and ran to drinking cups in each pen.

I MUST put up the plastic on the runs SOON.  Very cold tonight and tomorrow night.  I had to force the Exchequers in their coop.  They usually roost in the run but didn't get time to put the plastic up.  maybe tomorrow I will put them up BEFORE dark.  Made sure most of the wee ones had new bedding for the night.

Hi Donna
I have been talking to someone that I think can greatly help us move forward in our Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks. He has agreed to sale me some eggs come Spring. I also told him that I would gladly send him egg or chicks in return.

GREAT! Keep me in the loop!

Kenny,you have a very nice setup and great for multiple breedings. I also like your watering system.Next year I plan to add more breeding pens in my poultry yard. Very nice pictures of your Silver Penciled Plymouth Rocks & housing setup. Please post more in the future.

I guess no one has any opinions on my birds other than @silver rock. Thought I could get a few comments.

kw, This bird, is it a C or a K?

He is a K. Only 5 months old.

That's important, I think, as he may not be finished. His sire, do you recall whether he had rounded, full breast?

 

[kwMississippi]

I've not seen his sire as I just got him 3 weeks ago. His breeder has been breeding them for 30 years and usually has the most points in the silver penciled variety according to the Plymouth Rock club website.
