I have about ten out so far, I think I may have to put more out tonight, as they are coming in hoards. This is what I have been waiting for since last Fall...LOVE IT! Fountains are out, but they are not interested in them.

How often do you change your water? I change mine every day but would like it to be less frequent. One of my fountains is a DIY bucket fountain with a lid. That one gets changed once a week. But the unlided fountain every day.

I'll have to get one of those pumps, but I do have one of those power banks, too. Thanks. Hmm, I thought I had been subbed for awhile, had to resub.

Hi Robbie omg what a wonderful idea. I'm definitely going to be purchasing these fountain's. Not as many as you did lol. I took your idea and made a bubbler fountain ⛲ do you remember those old fashioned candle 🕯️ lights that ppl use for Christmas time for outdoors? Well the top of the candle came off so i took a 2 liter bottle took the plastic outter off and took my soldering iron and put holes in the bottle more less I just copied your idea but like I said i used the top of the candle/ wick part. And your right no sooner than i put it out our hummingbirds we're checking it out lol. They came back and took a splash bath in it and it was amazing to watch them. Thank you so much for sharing your video and idea ❤️🌹❤️

Any way to add a longer cord to a solar fountain? My fountain is in the middle of pure shade and I need another 10 feet added to the 10 feet. Not sure what wire to use. Thanks!

@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy 2 ай бұрын

I don’t believe you can due to the fact that it uses such a small amount of power, and it withdraw from the power it the cord is too long. But I have a new set up coming tomorrow or the next day that may be the answer to Your issue and even more to come… Thanks❤

Mosquitoes cannot produce in moving water, so keep that thought. So having a fountain that is moving at least 12 hours a day, the mosquito eggs cannot hatch in most varieties of mosquitoes.😊
