Just wanted to post a quick blog and video about how I am collecting rain water from the greenhouse. The green house is only 6X8, and I'm only collecting water from one end of the eaves spout. Which means there isn't a whole lot of water coming down. During winter I am going to use the collected water for the chickens and to water any plants in the greenhouse. I got this idea from YouTube one on of london1817's videos! You can see this took almost no time and I recycled some plastic that would otherwise be sitting in a landfill somewhere. Check out the video! (This one is very short!)
As you can see, this is so easy to do. The next thing I am working on, is plans for a Solar Heated Waterer for my chickens. I'm going to try and build something that requires no electricity or batteries to operate. I need something to try and keep their water from freezing. I'm not sure if this will be my next blog. Just keep an eye out for this!
