Re: Watering chickens in winter when it freezes

Hi John,

Thank you for contacting Premier 1 Supplies! It would be possible for the plastic to crack as the waterer is not meant to freeze. Expanding water can certainly cause it to breakdown and effect the integrity of the product over time if you do have power in the coop. Also, the thawing/breaking of ice can be hard on the waterer. I would suggest using a heated waterer or a galvanized waterer for winter uses.

I hope this helps answer your questions!
Have a great day,
Andrea
