The Problem

Before this was built the chickens were drinking out of stagnate water that was the ideal place for mold/algae to grow.

Our Plan

I have extended the originally structure by adding additional PVC pipes, more red water cups, and structurally support. I am also working on maintenance and making/connecting the rainwater collection system. The rainwater collection system works by putting a barrel underneath a gutter then at the bottom of the barrel there will be a hose connected to the automatic waterer for chickens, this will help with pressure leaks and prevent us from worrying about the chickens when the water goes out.
