Underground Draining Kiddie Pool For Kids Pets or Livestock

This is an in-ground kiddie pool that I put a drain in to easily empty and refill for my ducks. You can use this same concept for filling up water for your kids, dogs, or any other animals/livestock you may have. I was tired of trying to dump the heavy water filled kiddie pool every other day and then making a mess of my yard after doing it, which is why I made this.

🎉 You did an outstanding job troubleshooting, problem solving, and the animals love it. This will save you from some long term back pain in the future.

Dude! You could’ve done this sooo much easier with a pool liner.

[@Nuke21]

Ya you're probably right. I got this pool for free from a friend that no longer wanted it which is what sparked the idea to try this for my ducks since if it didn't work I could just toss it.

Great video! What is that shut off valve called? This looks like something I could do. Is this pool still holding up for you?

[@Nuke21]

Thank you! It is called a "2 inch PVC shut off valve". It is holding up extremely well still. If durability is something you're concerned about you could always get a thicker pool-type to start out with. For instance, I pondered using some galvanized troughs for horses and even a water pond, which both were a lot thicker, but this seemed more in my price range especially for an experiment like this. But yes I am happy to say it is still holding up very strong with constant use.
