I know it's not the same but does anybody know how to keep your males from peeing in their water?
Hang his water bucket by a wire. Make it high enough he cannot pee in it and low enough he can drink out of it.
That and tire around the bucket would if they were watered out of a bucket. I guess i need to go to buckets instead of the 50gal troughs, especially for the summer months where they can get in it to cool off. I just wish he wouldnt piss in it.
