Any of you guys that use or have used the chicken water nipples, please share your experience. I'm thinking of buying and trying some myself. They sound great, but they look awfully cheap. Anyone had any crack or freeze and bust?

I have not found any means to keep a nipple system from freezing here in the north, without compromising the safety of the coop. None whatsoever. Once those temps dip below 0°F and your nostrils freeze shut instantly upon going outside, there's pretty much nothing you can do. Kick the rubber bucket or get a heated dog dish. It's been a rough winter. My nipple waterer is out of commission, waiting for spring.
