After chopping ice for a few days and worrying about calves falling through. I'm thinking about trying to put in another concrete waterer.
I put one in when I built my largest pond and it never freezes up.
But I have some weaned calves in another field and the only water is from an older pond. I was wondering if any one had ever tried punching a pipe thru a pond levee and installing a freeze proof water that way, also I could keep them out of it in the summer.
I thought about buying a well point and pounding it thru like I was driving a well, but it might be hard horizontaly.
