A chickens need for water varies with weather conditions and activity.
keep fresh clean water available at all times.
A typical flock of 15 birds can drink up to a gallon of water per day, more in hot weather.

What happens if an egg is soaked in distilled water?
An egg placed in distilled water will expand more than an egg placed in the salt solution because thee water concentration of the water in the beaker is greater the the water concentration of the egg.
What effects does the amount of salt have on floatability of an egg?
The larger the salt concentration in the water, the more quickly the egg will achieve flotation. Adding salt to the water will cause the egg to float.
What happens when you put a raw egg in water?
If the shell is still on not much will happen as an eggshell is basically impermeable. However, if the shell is removed by soaking in vinegar or other weak acid and the selectively permeable membrane beneath is uncovered, water will exit the egg causing it to shrink assuming the concentration of solute (salt in this case) is higher outside of the egg than inside the egg initially. This movement of water is caused by osmosis. Osmosis is the natural tendency for water to move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration across a selectively permeable membrane requiring only the kinetic energy available in the molecules. If the concentration of solute is higher outside of the egg, by consequence the concentration of water will be lower and the water will exit the egg, moving to the area of lower concentration until the concentration of water is equal both inside and outside the egg.
Why does the boiled egg sink?
Depends on the egg, those with hard shells are not permeable to water so they wouldn't gain mass. In other cases, if there's a higher concentration of solutes in an egg in an environment, then water naturally goes in unless there are mechanisms to constantly remove water.
What happens if you put an egg in vinegar?
What happens is the egg will soften and the shell will eventualy dissolve off of the egg and then the egg will get a rubbery feel. Chances are you might be able to bounce if you try. This is not me telling you to bounce it.
Does vinegar have the same water concentration as an egg?
No, vinegar has a higher concentration of water than an egg. Therefore, if an egg is placed in vinegar, then it will gain mass because vinegar is hypotonic to the egg.
What happens if an egg is soaked in distilled water?
An egg placed in distilled water will expand more than an egg placed in the salt solution because thee water concentration of the water in the beaker is greater the the water concentration of the egg.
Does an egg get bigger in vinegar?
The egg was larger after remaining in water. Water has a lower concentration of solute molecules than the vinegar. Therefore, more water diffused to an area of higher concentration of solute particles.
What effects does the amount of salt have on floatability of an egg?
The larger the salt concentration in the water, the more quickly the egg will achieve flotation. Adding salt to the water will cause the egg to float.
Why does an egg float in water and not it salty water?
A fresh egg don't float in pure water; in a salty water the floating depends on the concentration of the salt in solution. The salty water is more dense.
What causes water molecules to move when an egg is placed vinegar?
egg has more water molecules than vinegar so when egg is placed in vinegar water molecules move from the egg to the vinegar due to osmosis,which is defined as "the movement of water molecules from higher concentration to lower concentration thru a partially permeable membrane" there fore the water molecules move inward. The proof is that the egg got larger and this was because water moved into the egg after the shell disintegrated from the 5% of acid in the vinegar. (the other 95% is water)
When a sea urchin egg is removed from the ocean and placed in freshwater the egg swells and bursts. Which of these causes water to enter the egg?
You will have to choose from the following information: Water will go to where the concentration of salt is higher.
Why does an egg inflate in water after taken out of corn syrup?
The water is a hypotonic solution, which means its concentration level is lower than that of the egg. It inflates because water from the outside moves into the cell.
What happens when you put a raw egg in water?
If the shell is still on not much will happen as an eggshell is basically impermeable.

Will an egg float in 1 teaspoon of salt water or 8 teaspoon of salt water?
How much salt water is present is not important, the problem is what is the concentration of salt in the water. The saltier it is, the denser the salt water becomes. If the salt water is denser in comparison to the density of the egg (which will more or less vary with each egg), then the egg will float; if not, then the egg will sink.
Show me what happen to an egg if you put it in vinegar?
when you put it in vinegar it becomes all soft and pickled. Then if you put it in water the egg will puff back up to normal size because of diffusion. The egg had low concentration and the water has a lot of concentration so the egg will puff up.
What happens if you put an egg in salt water for a week?
If you put an egg in salt water for a week, the egg will begin to undergo osmosis. The salt concentration in the water will cause water to move out of the egg, resulting in the egg shrinking and becoming smaller in size. The egg's membrane may also become translucent or appear to be semi-transparent.
