It often had condensation on it.  I wonder if the heated water helped with warmth?  I am no chicken expert but just like an outside dog.  Feed them up well in winter.  We feed regular chicken feed with the clam shells in it and mix it with cracked corn.  Also let them roam parts of a day.  They didn't lay a lot in winter but did get a few eggs a week.  We only have 6 chickens.</p></blockquote><p></p>
