A simple, low-cost solution to keep your poultry waterer from freezing. I needed a heater to prevent my chickens' water from freezing and looked at what was available commerically. What I found was just too expensive, around $80.00, so I decided...

Waterer for rotational grazing

Problem Statement/functional need Areas around waterers in paddocks often get over used, muddy and compacted. Concrete is expensive and permanent and doesn't grow grass. Buried systems are also expensive to install and not flexible if paddocks or grazing plans change. The design is low cost and flexible to enable new fields to be set up quickly and at low cost and spread animal traffic out and avoid compaction and muddy areas.
