<< One new product that we find helpful is the 20-gal blue electric water bucket made by API [?]. It draws little current and our horses have been drinking heartily. I don't know whether dehydration has been part of any of the problems listed, but it is reassuring to see them drink so well. >> Peg, we use that same bucket for our outside dogs, and another for our mini donkey Jack. Even with that bucket, and 4 other stock tank heaters, our electric bill has only increased about 25.00 a month....including our heat in the house running at night. ( My gas bill just doubled though, from 30 dollars a month to 65.00 ! ) Anyway, small price compared to colic surgery....last reported upwards here over 2,500.00, and in Ca. about double that to 7,000.00 one friend just paid. Yikes ! Lisa PS Hope your back feels better !
