Just got in from unthawing my main central water, we have three. Feed lines are buried 8 ft deep but have to come up under water. Have 12 inch pipe with line coming up in center of it about 6 feet down with a light bulb hanging in there to keep feed line unfrozen.

Coarse cows are thirsty and trying to drink as fast as I'm pouring 5 gal buckets into it. Get sorta funny look when they realize it's warm water and go to eating snow.
