shoura Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I read somewhere that putting sugar in the drinking water would stop it freezing---has anyone tried this? Would it be bad for the chooks and how much would you have to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I would have thought the amount needed would be enormous, after all there are something lke 16 teaspoons of sugar in a can of coke and they freeze no problems So no I wouldnt try it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
