Does anyone know where I can get second hand galvanized water trough from. Or a cheap new one. My horse has no water except buckets in field and winter will be a nightmare but I am on a shoe string. Live Bucks area

Do you have a water supply in the field you can connect to or are you going to be filling the trough by hand?

will fill by hand although not ffar to go there is a water supply about 50 metres away. However need to do buckets daily and am on full livery but dont really like him not have unlimited to water. though with a water trough I could fill at weekend and keep topped up without doing daily

Robinsons do field troughs that you can fill by hand - they're not massive but easy to move and survived a scottish winter and will keep you going a couple of days at a time

I have something similar but was looking for maybe one of those metal ones that hold a lot and I can fill just at weekends, at moment a bath and 2 buckets but worried about freezing etc.,

This firm do galvanised troughs of all sizes I think they start around £60 for metal ones .Not cheap but really good quality and will deliver .They can free stand or they can be plumbed in at a later date if required They are in the south of England
You could look for a farm auction and try to pick up a secod hand one there although the last farm sale I went to didn't have much .I think with the credit crunch people are making do and hanging on to stuff rather than replacing with new.
