Absolutely love your web page and Facebook page…… In the middle of building a coop for the first time. I’ve been reading your articles and tips on raising chickens and this “Chicken Fountain” would be perfect. Especially living in WISCONSIN, we get some pretty frigid temps. I’m Entered in the contest.

I’ve had my eye on this water system for a while. Time to act! :)
