Thinking as an engineer: long hose running on top of ground could easily freeze in sub 32 deg F. Furthermore, running water freezes at the same freezing point as still water, but running water creates heat, which takes longer to achieve the same freezing point. Best Cliff.
@@cliffhonnasregenerativerancher . So far, it means we bucket water until the lights come back. We have 4 herds of about 20 animals each….and its NO FUN this time of year. We both are fighting Covid again and praying everything stays together until we can get healthy again

Let us know how it works. I used a freeze miester last year and the water kept running, but the top of the tank froze except one small area about the size of a softball. I’ve got electric heaters in my troughs this year and so far they are working fine.
He healed up on the injured leg and once sound, I turned him out with the cows. Was great for 3 weeks then was crippled crippled on the opposite hind leg. I’ve had him penned up for a month now. He’s much better but still a mild limp. Praying he will slowly get better.
Always making improvements and life easier. Thanks for sharing your solution.
Good idea Mr. Cliff
ranchers are pretty good enginers great ideal chuck
Hopefully this freeze leaves us quick. Good to hear from you Cliff!
Thanks Eric!

Hope I can keep it running. Thanks for the insight!
Speaking of water hope your folks getting some moisture now it turn winter get those pastures green this spring.
We aren’t in bad shape rain wise but not enough to run water to fill the tanks much. We will take what we can get though. Hope y’all are good on rain!
Yep we got 6 inches in the last 2 weeks in my neck of the woods on the east coast and cold weather on the way here.@@cliffhonnasregenerativerancher
@SHOE53 that’s great! You should be set for spring!
Nice trick for Texas, but here in NW Wisconsin we would freeze that whole rig solid in minutes. -22f tonight
I suppose you need heat in your troughs? If do, what happens in an electrical outage? Educate me cause I don’t know how to survive in that country.
@@cliffhonnasregenerativerancherperhaps Russ Wilson's method would help in Wisconsin? Greg Judy is using it in MO, too.
On Greg Judy Regenerative Rancher video titled Greg gives update on his winter water freeze proof water system and explains insurance fence.
@user-kv2pt4lu9y I’ll get a look. Thanks!

CAN YOU APPLY CAPTIONS? PLEASE . GREAT VIDEO.
Where should I apply captions?

17° this morning. Troughs ice free and siphon running good!! 🤞🏼
