Ughhhhh! It's my turn at breaking ice. Had half an inch in the water trough this morning. Luckily we don't go through too much of this. Plus I have 2 ponds that rarely freeze. Check this solar powered water trough out. It's costly but may be well worth it in those cold climates. www.horse.com/products/product.aspx?sku=BSA40
