How many buckets do you put in your horses stable at night?

I used to put three in and he would drink them all do ended up using a trug....in blue of course :D
 
My little one has the second biggest sized trug in her box at night, and a HUGE trough in her shed during the day.

The older horses have the biggest tub trugs in their boxes. xxxxx
 
My old lad drinks sod all in his stable! He probably drinks half a bucket at most, but he always had a huge Trug full. As soon as you turned him out he'd go straight to his trough and guzzle it down. Strange creature :D Now he is out 24/7 so can drink from his trough whenever he fancies.
New Mare has two buckets, as I haven't had a chance to get her anything else yet, and she guzzles water down :rolleyes: but always has some left in the morning.
 
When the auto packs up she gets an extra large bucket, twice the size of an ordinary one but if she tips it on the floor she has to wait till morning for a refill. Oh, and the bucket is blue, the auto bowl is galvanised.
 
Gerry normally has two small white ones that hang on hooks but they've been freezing in this weather so have borrowed huge pink trug from a friend on the theory that a bigger bucket will take longer to freeze. You should have seen the look on his face when he went in his stable tonight. He stood at the back of the stable snorting at the pink monster which had invaded his batchelor pad.
