Today used a cement cinder block, with a 100 watt light bulb and fixture placed inside. I then covered the top with a large ceramic tile. I placed the 2 gallon water bowl on top of this. I placed this safely inside of the covered run area. It is about 15 outside, going down close to 0 tonight.
The water is freezing in this container, not impressed with this method at all.
I have a 1.5 gallon heated dog water bowl outside, and in the wind. It is completely ice free, what gives?
Am I doing something wrong here? I think I will buy more heated dog bowls, they work here at 30 below. Any thoughs and/or suggestions welcomed.....RR pics to follow
