[QUOTE="jkwilson, post: 1390858, member: 969"] If you have a stream with enough depth, you could bury a bucket of gravel and run a siphon. I ran a tank on a siphon for many years. I plumbed a garden hose into the drain plug and let the water run over one end. Ran that way for many years with no heat at all and never had to restart it except early on when crawdads would clog the hose before I got a strainer on it. The tank would ice at the end away from the flow, but never all the way across. Easiest solution is to use that pasture during the summer and put them someplace with water during the winter. [/QUOTE]
