Do you use heated buckets at all? I used to carry buckets of water out 3-4X a day for my flock but boy when I found they made heated buckets that sure was a nice find for my ducks chickens and geese. Most of my heated buckets are about 5 yrs old and still working great.
@darharris I also gave them the Ohio Forum thread hopefully someone will take them.
I actually like getting ducks during the fall and winter, the boys aren't hormone-driven and it gives the females time to get settled in before the big hormone urge hits.
