Anyone around here done this? Right now I have the old school metal waterer but in MD it's been pretty cold and the water keeps freezing. I was going to use one of those metal heaters you put under it but the instruction / warnings about how it shouldn't get wet and should always be covered have me a bit worried. The run under the coop is fairly dry but I can't guarantee it won't get wet. I saw plans online to use side mounted nipples in a bucket. The guy tossed in a submersible aquarium heater, the whole thing cost $20 and seems to work pretty well. Thoughts?
