TY !! Your video is what I've been waiting for ! So many videos go into other detail on other parts of the coop when all I wanted was this focus. To the point and focused on the water & food system.
It work really good, but there was a horder house behind mine. They just cleaned out. So I'm not using it for food anymore. And now just use it for the oyster shells. Can't leave food in the coop, at least for now.
Unfortunately, yes I did and I do not have electricity out there. But if you do, you can make a return line that goes back Into the water cetchment and add a heat pump that will circulate and that should stop any kind of freezing in the hose or the cetchment.
