Do chicken and turkeys need water?

[Blackluster3]

Just curious if its needed in their zone or not cause the tags on wiki are needs food = true but no mentions of water.

Also do they just eat the grass if no food in feeders? the tag for eats grass = true

Also do the animals die or should i rush and bring all of them home asap. I feel like day 3 in game with real time on i spent all the time just getting animals home out of fear of not finding at least a few males and females of each species.

Also does anyone know if you can spawn a Simmental bull and how with the debug menu? I went to all farms everywhere on the map this thing forgot to spawn on my seed.

So, as far as I've noticed, starting on a typical July: Chickens will be fed and watered without a lot of effort on your part; you can rip grass out of the ground to get grass clippings, or use a scythe. Rainwater will help offset you not giving them water directly - if a feeder is outdoor, it fills with rainwater. But, I haven't made it much past July so far, I'm very rusty and a lot of things are different about combat since I last played seriously. So, I'd imagine the dryer months will require more water collection, and then winter....
