How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[house-elf]

I am hopefully about to get my coop this week and was just thinking about feeding. On alot of pictures I have seen the feeders are in the run, but what about inside the coop when they are in at night ? Surely they need at least water to drink at night ????

 

Or am I being stupid ?

Our girls have access if they want it because we don't shut the eglu door, but I think they just sleep all night and wouldn't want it until they get up anyway - I stand to be corrected though I'm no expert!!

Hi House-elf

 

Generally they dont need food and water over night so I wouldn't worry. They stock up before they go to bed. You'll notice that they'll have a very full crop.

 

Also I take my food in overnight to discourage foxy and rats and to prevent it being wasted if it becomes damp....

 

Hope you enjoy your chooks. dont forget the pics

Hi, no need to worry, they don't need food or drink at night.

 

Even in winter when they go to bed at 4pm rather than 10pm, they are still ok until I open the eglu up at 7.30am. Water and food in the housing will just get knocked over and pooped upon. They will be fine, my lot are still alive after 2 years......so they won't starve overnight.
