Fair warning: My almost out of eggs isn't likely your almost out of eggs. However, I don't have a single duck nor chicken egg in the fridge. With these damn polar bears stirring up a vortex, my yardbirds are pretty much laying frozen eggs. Every single one I bring in is either rock solid or cracked. Those go straight to the dogs.

My air hole on the quail drinker froze shut a couple days ago meaning the drinker-nipples wouldn't work. I sorted that out, but the heater bulb burned out that night. They went almost 2 days with presumably only a 30 minute period with liquid water. No eggs for 2 days. Only 1 egg yesterday. I gave them a bag of popcorn and a large snowball to make up for it.

I'm sitting on maybe 20 quail eggs in the fridge. It's turning into The Road over here. I blame the jews.

I'd set the jug right on it. Plastic won't burn if there's water inside. The nipples are a couple inches off the bottom, so even a leaky one can't drain the jug. I might switch out the 25w for a 40w. They all want to stand on the tin when I take the jug to fill it.

As long as the quail get water once a day, they'll be fine. I just don't like carrying some out there every day. A little bit of effort allows for a season of laziness lol.
