[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 137817"] Yup - visit your neighbours and ask them what they do - or pump the water direct to a heated bowl - have to bury the line first. Or, let them lick snow. For cows - we fill the trough once a day - if they miss they go thirsty. They soon learn to be there when you start the water. For calves we put out a heated bowl - forget the frost free - they aren't! For the bulls we used to fill a trough and keep a heater in it - works fine. Best bet - see what neighbours do and copy it - they are the locals and therefore the proven "best idea" for the local area. Bez' [/QUOTE]
