See all of this pretty snow that fell this week? It couldn’t last forever and now it’s a big, watery mess that has kept me busy bailing out the basement and around the coops all day.

I really want to change to a water nipple system. My girls love to take their dirt baths right next to their current waterer and it's always a mess. I have three coops to tend and it would save SO MUCH time!
