Seriously, it takes longer just to water everyone (and keep watering them throughout the day) than it does to do anything else rabbit-related. Heck, even horse related. LOL Anyway, I was thinking about installing an automatic watering system, but had a few questions.
1.) How do you keep everything from freezing??? Or do you switch to bottles/crocks during the winter months?
2.) How do you keep the lines sanitized? I just picture a bunch of green stuff growing in the water lines and wasn't sure how you'd go about keeping them clear.
3.) I roll (or carry, depending on the stacking unit) my cages outside monthly to clean/sanitize everything. Would disconnecting the main line to each stacker eventually cause leaking problems?
4.) Do you use a bucket/small barrel as the water supply, or the main spigot with a regulator? Pros and cons of each?
5.) If you have a system in place already, what are things you wish you had done differently in setting everything up?
