The Dogmother Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Just bring the glug in overnight so that it doesn't freeze and take it back out in the morning when you open the eglu door. Easy enough to say that though - I managed to leave the water out last night and it was frozen solid this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaime Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 When my friends were travelling through Austria by car they put the cheapest Bacardi or Vodka in the water to stop the windscreen washers from freezing - the locals said it was cheaper than antifreeze. Perhaps if we did the same with the Chooks they would lay ready made egg nog! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 No THAT sounds like an idea! I did try feeding the girls green and blacks last Easter, but it wasnt a success......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
