drinking

Recommended Posts

my hens have dramaticly reduced the amount they are drinking they would normaly drink over 5lts a day between the four of them, it seems like they are hardly drinking this week and they have stopped laying. They have access to water in a water feeder but don't seem to be touching it.

obvious questions and ones I am sure you hva already covered:

 

Is the drinker clean?

Is the water clean?

Have you added anything to the water?

Have you changed the drinker?

Are they eating ok?

 

If you arent doing anything different and are concerned soak some wheat or mixed corn in water for a couple of hours and feed them that to keep up their hydration level
