I am not looking forward to the winter ice problems. Last year I purchased a heated base for a metal waterer. I had a 3 gallon double wall waterer that most all have seen. The name I can't remember. My problem is my coop sets on the ground and with the frost it never stays level. It heaves all over the place. The old waterer filled to the brim and was impossible to keep it from leaking. Any solutions to fixing my problem, or does someone know of a waterer that doesn't fill to the brim? I have had 3 of the Farm Innovation plastic heated waterers and they all have leaked inside the base filling all the energized wires full of water. Kill hazard, along with a fire hazard. All input would be appreciated. John
