What happens here

After tending to the main coop, drive the ATV to the field where other chickens are housed. Use a 5-gallon bucket to carry fresh water and a scoop to carry feed. Refill the chicken waterers by pouring water into them, and then distribute chicken feed on the ground or into feeders for the free-ranging birds. Additionally, use a small shovel to spread diatomaceous earth around the coop, which can help control pests. Ensure the electric fence around the chicken enclosure is properly secured and operational.

Goal: Provide food and water to chickens in the field enclosures.
