Yeah homesteading is great. I have a friend who's parents have a chicken coop at the back of their house (they live in a city) and they're great. They also collect rain water and pump it through the house.
Really inventive bunch.

Wow, using rainwater inside the house is impressive! That's some serious dedication.
We collect it and use it for the garden so we don't need to use city water. It's fairly common in farm country.
Yes, I think they do have municipal water but I think it draws from the rainwater tank first. I believe.
