Don't know any real tricks. We had cows in a stanchion barn all my life up til seven years ago. It takes some of them a while,but never had one that didn't figure it out when they got thirsty enough. Generally another one would leave water in the bowl and the stupid one would get so thirsty and aggressive that she would burry her head in the bowl and push it down accidentally sooner or later. They usually scare themselves when the water jets out,but they figure it out. What kind of bowl is it anyway? We had the best luck with the old cast iron Starlines. Those paddles kinda hung from the side. The newer Jamesway bowls had the paddle more at the bottom so it wasn't so easy for them to accidentally push it. They had to be more aggressive about getting their noses to the bottom to push those. Sometimes the pin would get worn and there wouldn't be much clearance between the paddle and the bottom of the bowl.
