Hi all, i was woundering if i should be providing water in the coop for when the girls are locked up for the night? they have water in the run which i bring in every night to prevent freezing but i always give them fresh in the morning

Hi Gareth

No need to provide water or food in the coop. Even with the longer nights, when they go in, they sleep. Food and water would just get kicked over and trodden in )t'

As long as they have access to fresh water as soon as they get up and throughout the day, they'll be fine :-D

No they don't need food or water in the coop at night.
