Day 13 #100DaysOfOldDays

Short and sweet today!

My mam sent me these photos and only for she told me what they are, I wouldn’t have guessed. Those of you from a farming background would probably know.

This one is a poultry feeder. Nothing much to explain; fill it with food and the birds eat from the trough at the bottom.

This one (below) is a poultry drinker. Open the lid, fill with water, replace the lid. The birds drink the water from the trough area.

The modern day feeders are made from materials that are more robust and durable, offering better protection from the weather and keeping the food fresher for longer. Some are automatic, waterproof and rat proof.

And here we have Lucy’s sketch of a hen.
