Too good for outdoor water

Too good for outdoor water

My girl Jackie (10 yrs old this year) is too good for the hose water that fills the coop water and trough for the goats. She has to come to the pool area and ask to be let in to drink from the dog bucket. Dogs get distilled water in their bucket. She loves my black lab/coon mix but I think she makes the arthritic trek to get better water. Who says chickens don't taste things. But then again, maybe she actually does love me and my dog that much. Hoping it's the latter. She's such a good girl. She had a hard winter this year and got through it with titrated doses of Metacam and Im hoping she makes it a few more. If I can rehome my husband, she will be a house chicken through the cold months!
