In my opinion what ever farm you are owning, you should take care of the animal and treat it with respect. I feel so horrible that those poor things had to die in such terrible conditions.
This makes me so glad I give Freya fresh water each day, and sanitize her whole bottle once a week. This really looks like it kills pretty fast once they start showing symptoms.
Scary... I had a water issue when I first moved to my husbands home after the wedding. Since then we all get bottled water and cleaning day water bottles go into the dishwasher...but still scary
