[QUOTE="dun, post: 328092, member: 34"] All ofthe girls are in the 3rd stage so no lactation affects. From Saturday until Tuesday afternoon there was no liquid water available for the girls. Took that long to fix broken water lines in the pump house and thaw out everything that was frozen solid (heater in the pump house burned out). The ladys had been out eating frozen, i.e. ice coated grass and hay during that period, that was the only water available. Finally got water to them and had to drive them to the water point. They were pretty leery of going into the area because a lot of large limbs had been falling in there and I think they were afraid morewould be coming. Forced them in anyway. One cow took a sip and turned round and walked out. The others wandered off, layed down and chewed their cuds. Apparantly they had gotten enough moisture from just eating the ice for those few days. Nothing earth shattering but I found it interesting. dun [/QUOTE]
