You may try a gun safe heater under the water tank in the ground instead of in the tank maybe a 15 watt would not burn its self up and keep the water from freezing so fast . Maybe two of them and bury the wire. Edit: May try feeding the quack pack in front of there shed and in it .

Yall are good farmers. KEVIN & Rachel. Try to keep warm & safe. God bless. 😍

[@polycat7670]

I've heard that another snow storm may be on the way....next weekend....stay warm.

[@desertdawg3409]

Since Leiski removed the plug for you already, run wire thru a piece of PVC pipe or armored flex conduit (flex conduit is easier to route to tank) to shield it and replace plug with new one... Anchor conduit to fence post so you can rotate the PVC/conduit to get tub out to clean it out. We did this with the horses to keep them from nibbling the water feed hose to the tank. We don't need heaters here in southern AZ. (the lowest temp we've had here at night this winter so far was 41F)

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

You're lucky

[@DonLewis86753]

Desert Dawg. You are absolutely right with the PVC and the flex conduit. You save me a lot of tapping the keyboard to say exactly what you said. 😂👍💪💪

[@vegasbattleborn1594]

I was going to suggest 1/2" or 3/4" EMT with a short junction of sealtight (flex plastic conduit) to the tank. Less destructible less that he could chew through.

[@desertdawg3409]

[@randallharris3113]

Kevin I know what your going through the cold and snow storms and frozen water. That was a good idea I never thought of feeding the dogs warmed up wet food for energy and something to warm there bellies some thanks for sharing these things for other to see and use if they want to

[@donnaworrall9353]

I live in South Carolina use warm water and warmed canned food when it’s cold. I do this for my inside and outside dog. Who wants cold food in the winter 🤨. I also used warm water to soak beet pulp and alfalfa pellets for my horse too😊

[@carolynmesser7199]

Nice warm dog food , the work must go on , on a farm no matter the weather , thx Kevin💕🙏💕🙏

[@gaylewatkins4685]

Hi Kevin, Leeske is a huge puppy and will continue to get into mischief from time to time. You do a great job taking care of your farm animals in all types of weather. Try to stay warm and God Bless.

[@Ali-pj9zu]

Here in Canada many have block heaters for cars, to keep the engine warm so it starts. My friends lab crewed the cord for the block heater when it was plugged in, she did not even notice. They could not figure out why the car did not start in the morning as they had plugged it in the night before. Then they noticed the cord. Its a dog thing, especially when still a puppy.

[@dapacathomeca8232]

Oh, I well remember snowy days while growing up in Nebraska. Chores had to be done before school and after . It looks very cold there. We had a nice high 70s today in So Cal and it felt wonderful.

Great video. It is harder to do chores with all the bitter wind and cold. Dogs seemed to love their warm, canned food special of the day. 😺💖

[@emerald523]

I feel your pain with the pup chewing things. My 1 year old, black lab/pit bull/beagle mix, chews EVERYTHING. She's chewed my glasses, hubby's glasses, numerous shoes, anything plastic, too many pillows to count... Everything has to be up where she can't get it. She has chew toys out the wazoo, has torn up so many stuffies, it's insane.

[@marymurphy5245]

Stay safe!

[@ShaneZettelmier]

For the water you could look for a reptile pad or a plant heating pad event that could go under the water tank. When it’s going to freeze you could just plug it in. It’s basically just a heating pad that you would put under the plastic tank it would just add a little heat to the water but sitting under the water tank with a cord going out of the middle in the back leesky couldn’t get to it.

[@FloCreasy]

I enjoyed watching the go pro in the harnessed.

[@aussierider41]

I’d put the tarp back up on the big doorway. It lets a ton of cold air in. There’s plenty of ventilation from the smaller slider door you put in and some open spots around the bottom of the barn.

[@Carolbearce]

I sure hope you warm up soon! Critters sure don’t seem to mind the snow. Stay warm and healthy.

[@priestguardian2587]

The items in the box looks great. I’d like to be able to get the little stove and coffee pot to put with my disaster box. I love how those little goats cry out. So cute. I’m writing this on Wednesday. I hope by now you are thawed out. That is some snow with such frigid temperatures.

[@janinebell763]

Today it is going to be 40degC so it is so hot, here in Perth, Australia.

[@barbaradaugherty9626]

For the water trough in Leesky’s pen, try a piece of pvc with an elbow curve to put the cord through. He wouldn’t be able to chew through it so easily and maybe lose interest in it.

[@TheMrsEmpty]

LOL, I was just about to say the same thing. PVC or even regular large diameter plumber pipe in case the dog decides PVC is also a chew toy challenge. Then shallow bury it if needed. Option B: staple the cord to the back side of some boards and fasten them to the fence away from the pen area. Out of sight, out of mind.

[@30547etris]

Pretty Snow !

[@debbiew.7094]

It was nice to see all the animals are doing ok during the storm! Thanks for letting us know! I'm glad you all are ok staying in as well!

[@billymorden4905]

Kevin you can get tank heaters that go through the drain plug on the tank then place the plug in side against the fence so the cord is no where the animals cant reach it

[@ArizonaHighDesertHomestead]

Been a rough February winter wise. Hope you all are safe and warm.. God Bless you

hey kevin since you got to fix the cord anyway ,make it long enough to slide a piece of 1/2 conduit pipe over the wire that way the only exposed part is well outside the fence

Good call to not plug the heater in. Poor Mojo got the “blame,” shown in the thumbnail. 😀🤓

[@fuzzylop9164]

Thanks for the weather preview. Seems here in PA we get the same here a few days behind you. Leaski just could not resist. Running the cord through conduit sounds like a good idea.

[@pamelahouser3487]

Kevin, thank you sharing your winter adventure of feeding time. Never thought to heat up the canned dog food…I wish I would have thought of that when I had my girl. Brrr!

Sorry about that, my phone as a mind of its self. That so nice of u to warm up the can food for MOJO & Leeskie. Please stay safe down there

[@kimberlyfojtik3468]

Thanks for sharing.

[@davidmiller6726]

Kevin, maybe you could get some PVC pipe/tubing, and a few fittings, trim the plug end off of a heater, run the cord through the PVC, and arrange it where Leeskee won't chew it? You can get a weatherproof cord end to replace the one you cut off, and also, this might allow you to eliminate extra cordage that could become a chew toy! I know all too well about pet kiddos chewing things... I have two 13 year old male house cats (Brothers) and both will still chew any indoor cords if they are given the chance... Y'all stay warm and well, be safe!

[@dawnweck]

Hahah I alwas thought that when those baby goats cry it sounded like they were saying Maaaa. He was probably thinking about that warm milk. Goats are just so darned cute! Hugs to Y'all Ü

[@HiddenHeightsFarm]

It does lol

[@lockedin60]

Kevin what about a concrete pad for Leeske's side water bowl. Then put a heating pad between concrete and water bowl. Then run electrical underground and tie into barns electrical system.

[@suehilet8589]

Love watching ❤️👏 in Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺

[@lindahipp8329]

So glad that you didn't have it plugged in when Leeske gnawed through it. It's rough having to bust up the water but it's better than having your LGD hurt. I know they appreciate the warm food out there in the cold. Skeeter says that can food smells good why can't I have some. Take care and stay safe and warm out there. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.

[@johnjalad3590]

Take your heater wire through a piece of conduit say 1 1/2 “ 90^ large enough to allow a electric plug through. Also drill a small hole in the conduit above the water line to prevent siphoning the water out of the container.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

I think you mentioned on your last video about running the heater cord through a pipe to keep Leske from chewing on the cord. That may be your best bet. The cord for my heated bucket is run outside the pen and has a protection on the cord so I didn't have to worry about my young LGD chewing on it.

[@juliemelnychuk8162]

Yes, feeding the animals in the winter. Lots of extra work. You guys are having a cold snap, up here, we are having a heat wave. Not much snow. Maybe a foot of snow. Had a beautiful sun rise, this morning. Iol, don't think Mojo is cold. But enjoying the can dog food. Keep warm and safe.🙏❤😊🥶
