CR: I coud not "quote" your comment - but YOU DON'T LIKE BBQ!!!!

Are you human? LOL. We have a Traeger and I cook on it as much as possible during the summer. Absolutely love it.

Okay, no BBQ for you. what else could I feed you to lure you away from the birds?..."look away from the birds"...."move away from the birds".

ROTFL Teresa! You're making some of the rest of us want to come over and eat at your place though!

Make him a big ol' banana pie. We know he likes those!

I've actually been looking into getting that system too! Let us know how it goes, I think it's much better than hauling water and cleaning shavings out of water's!!

I love my nipple waterers! Mine are drilled into a small bucket and my girls love it. So much easier to keep water clean and fresh.

Thanks FRF - We're sure enjoying them. Although every day also reminds me just how messy chicks in the house are and what a relief it can be to finally get them outside!!! My biggest challenge in the next week or so will be finding someone to build my coop and run. I'm thinking I may need a grow out coop and then just for leave silkies I'm keeping in it. Unfortunately my actor buddy told me it's a little beyond his skill level. I have the plans for a coop that I think would be perfect for them since it's lower to the ground and has a short ramp. Then the Seramas could summer in it too. I'm envisioning a taller covered run around it. I thought it was pretty cute though!

FRF and KMHunter - I'll try to get some individual silkie pics up today. I know KM has some due to hatch in the next week or so. They are cutie pies! Keep fingers crossed for lots of girls! Should also try to take pics of the giant blue English Orp babies. There's no way I can tell the difference between them right now.

Quote: Just switched mine to nipple waterers yesterday. I left the other water in for the day yesterday and pulled it last night so they would be thirsty this morning. I showed them this morning and after 1 got it they all followed suit. Pretty easy. And I agree that not having to clean poop and gunk out of the waterers all the time will be fantastic.

That's encouraging to hear. I've seen a 5 gallon bucket with a lid that has water nipples underneath that can either be hung or wall mounted that I'd like to switch over to. Cleaning out the waterer has gotten SO tiresome.
