I rotate two plastic waterers in the winter when its subzero. If one freezes up I bring it in the house. I don't bang it on the ground to break it up. I then bring the second down with open water until that freezes. I've had those two waterers for 4 years. Yep they do get brittle over the years...I agree. But that galvanized steel will break down and leach zinc into your water and make your animals sick. It will take a while but it will do that. I had a galvanized bucket for my labrador. Real cute in the house until she was not eating and vomiting everyday for a week. I finally figured it out and got rid of the galvinized steel for her water bucket and she got better.
I like ACV in my water for my birds and it will make that leaching process happen even faster...thus leaving me the only other fount option their is: Plastic.
I'm not a big one to throw money away. And don't get me wrong of love the tough industrial stuff better than most folks and will invest in it when I can. But I had let that one go.
