How many critters are needed to keep it working vs how cold it is.

Sun vs shade, and group drinking vs a yard with constant light drinking would probsbly matter a lot.

You say most of the water is used up and incoming water thaws there little that is left.

When it’s 10 below or more, and some cattle like to play in water more than drink it, I can see a coating of ice build up over time that won’t thaw off easy.

If 10 cattle are there I could see it coat up in the wrong conditions.

If 100 cattle used it likely wouldn’t.

Just seems there is some spot where it would or wouldn’t work in extreme conditions.
