Hi everyone.... well ive nearly finished my coop ( pictures to follow), and we are starting to buy food/equipment now.  i have a question about feeders, and water holders.
ok we are getting 6 girls....do i buy 1 larger food and water container ,or should i buy 2 smaller ones?... the coop is going on slabs and the food/water was going to be kept under there. partly so it dosent get wet, and partly because its going to be easier to keep the area clean cos i can sweep it. should i have another food/water container somewhere else in the run, to prevent squabbles(sp?)....do they even fight over who is going to eat/drink, and when.?. they will be in the run if no-one is in the house , and free ranging when someone is available to keep and eye on them, as we have lots of cats, squirrels, a fox etc. Any advice would be (as always) most welcome , thanks, lizzie

Hi Lizzie

Think I'd get two, there is always one bird that seems to get pushed to the back at feed times so two feeders will help stop that
