[QUOTE="badaxemoo, post: 282162, member: 3926"] Really? Are you sure? The pipe is black and with global warming and all, I thought I'd just leave it out there all winter! Thanks everybody for the input. I am more or less being lazy. Of course I plan on draining the line, but it is just tempting to leave it out as long as possible, especially since we are supposed to have lows in the forties following Wednesday's projected low of 26. Burial is expensive up here (yes - 6 feet) and I like the flexibility of keeping it on top of the ground since we are in the early stages of setting up our paddocks. I don't think I have enough cattle to keep the water running enough to keep it clear and they seem to end their tank visits around 11 p.m. anyway. And I'll take the opposite - I think I'd melt in Texas. You can always put on more clothes, but there are only so many (especially around moving machinery parts) you can take off. We had a hot streak this summer and I hated watching the cattle pant. They pretty much shrug off subzero and eat a little more hay. [/QUOTE]
