Chicken Waterer

In the interest of being complete in my documentation of the chicken coop, I present this picture of the newly-installed automatic poultry waterer. I had to cobble together the piping, which was fun. It took me a couple of tries to get a water-tight connection from the hose to the pipe (tip: cheap plastic hose repair items are not likely to be water tight) but it seems to be drip-free now (it didn't help that I don't know where my pipe wrenches are so I had to use a couple of vise grips to tighten the joints, which is not necessarily best plumbing practice).
