[QUOTE="Danllan, post: 7655985, member: 8735"] I've no experience of these, always having used troughs of various sizes and types. But I'm going to try changing part of my set up this year, so am intending to have a couple of separate pens for yearling and two-year-old beef steers, just half a dozen in each to see how it goes. A trough is over-kill and wouldn't fit with what / where they'll be, so drinkers / bowls of the type linked at bottom seem a better bet. Two questions: 1) Are these fine connected directly to the general water supply, or is a header tank advisable or what? 2) Experience tells me that the pressed ones are going to get trashed by anything bigger than a calf, anybody found otherwise or is it just best to go for the cast version? Thanks in advance. [URL='https://iae.co.uk/product-agriculture/self-fill-water-bowls/']Self Fill Water Bowls | Water Bowls and Troughs | IAE Agriculture[/URL] [/QUOTE]
