Small world for sure. I live in Scottown, just a few miles north.

Mine gets that every year during the first really cold snap and looks exactly like your photos. Where I live it can get down to -40 Celsius. What I have learned from three years of this - when it gets to be below 0 Celsius I add an aquarium heater to their water. The water bucket I use is the one with little nozzles so no chin dripping. I remove all metal feeders and replace with plastic so no cold metal touching face. This helps A LOT however he still gets it once per season. When I notice it’s starting I bring him in and give him some metacam.
