rsmith OFFLINE Junior Member Posts: 36 Good Job(s): 10	Someone had asked a question on the Facebook page about water systems for chickens. I just wanted to share what we use in the coop. It is not used much right now because our girls free range all day and I keep a metal dog dish out with fresh water daily. I do put about 1/4 of the bucket once a week. One of the girls likes to roost on top of it and since it is closed the water is always clean.

I will share this one. Do you have an iPhone or did you post these from your desktop?

HFI_Matt ~ Humble Servant ~ OFFLINE ADMIN Posts: 927 Good Job(s): 108	There is normally a button to edit your photos on your phone and tablet to rotate photos:) Look for it next time. Should have a way to do it.

HFI_Matt ~ Humble Servant ~ OFFLINE ADMIN Posts: 927 Good Job(s): 108	Since they are rotating to the left I would say try to rotate them one time to the right so that when you post them they may have the right orientation:) Just a little suggestion my friend.
