That doesn't surprise me at all...
You can continue using a bucket with a board or something heavy covering most of the top so they can't climb in or get too carried away. @Miss Lydia has a pic of her semi mess free winter water bucket.
Are your birds free range at all, or in a coop/run? What do you use on the ground of their enclosure?
My runners definitely get cold much faster than the heavier breeds. I use the flat panel radiant wall heaters at duck level, extra straw in the coop and try to keep it as dry and draft free as possible. They also have their fatter flock mates body heat to help raise the coop temp and keep them comfortable.
