Anything I can put in waterers to prevent freezing?

But what works for the chickens other than a heated trough or dog dish, is to use the rubber bowl and to water frequently.

Yup, winter waterers for the girls are the small fortex rubber bowls. Easy to get the ice out and if it's really frozen, I just bring them inside and set them on top of the wood stove, resting on a tuna or cat food can.

Molasses seems to keep them form freezing as fast as plain water, but it will still freeze.
