Have you heard of the Bar Bar A Horsedrinker? While it’s been a wet winter here, it’s been a terribly cold winter in many parts of the country. Yes, we’ve had to deal with muddy stalls, but we haven’t had to deal with frozen water pipes or icy water troughs. In rambling through the world wide web, I came across the Bar Bar A Horsedrinker and it got me to thinking how good we have it most of the time here in California.
The Bar Bar A Horsedrinker has a cool design that allows livestock to drink, then drains the water away. The result is cooler water in the blazing hot summer months and no frozen tanks or water lines and warmer water in the winter months. As the rest of the country starts to thaw out, I thought you might want to check this out. I contacted the makers of the Bar Bar A Horsedrinker, who then connected me with Buck Strayhorn, horsemen, trainer, and spokesman for the company. Buck was kind enough to talk with me from his home in Northern Utah.
