Elderly cat breathing difficulties when purring

[docsquid]

My cube came with a SuperGlug, and the chickens are quite happy using it. Indeed, while I was filling it up from the hose today, Blodwyn came up and tried to drink from the little drinker valves while I was holding it! She seems to prefer it to the natural water on offer in the garden (the large pond).

 

I would really like to get an extra Glug and Grub so that I can put the originals through the dishwasher to keep them properly clean. Also, when we get more girls, I will need another feeder and drinker while I do the intros.

 

The question is, should I get another SuperGlug or a standard Glug? I don't want them to forget how to use the SuperGlug if I have the ordinary one in place for a day or two while I'm cleaning them. OTOH it would be useful to have a regular Glug if any future chickens really can't get the hang of the SuperGlug.

 

What are your thoughts on this?

Mine use both the glug and superglug without any problems. I also use a superglug as a normal glug (hung lower down on the run) and put a log next to it for them to perch on. That way they get more water and the superglug becomes more versatile.

I find gravity drinkers the easiest to use and they can't wash their feet in the water then!

I've got both in mine, they seem to use the glug more but the superglug is there as a good backup especially for whilst we are away at weekends etc.

Thank you. It looks like an ordinary glug as back-up. I think this would be a good purchase. They are FR most of the time and drink from the pond anyway!

I'd go with the normal glug too.....in fact I did & it arrived today (yesterday, looking at the clock ).......lovely shade of purple, matches absolutely nothing

Thank you. Have ordered spare grub and ordinary glug. Not that they use either much! They like being in the garden a whole lot better!
