Any recommendations for chicken waterers for winter? I just broke my plastic one

I'm thinking of just using a big stainless steel bowl set in a tire or hole in ground so I can easily remove ice

A lot of people use the livestock rubber bowls. They are quite rigid but flex enough. You can kinda slam them on the ground to knock out the ice block and then refill them. Quite durable.

Thanks. I'll check those out.

Sure thing. Let me know what ends up working out for you

I ended up going with a three gallon rubber feed tub and a submersible heater for when I'm gone for a day or two.

Awesome 👏🏻
