Self cleaning water bucket for ducks (or other animals)

Here is my 41 second video on our duck's self cleaning bucket

Self cleaning and self filling bucket that we use for ducks. It’s a good height for ducks that are over a month ish year old. Ducklings can get into it but by then they are also old enough to get themselves out of it in our experience. We offer a pool on hot days, so don’t run into too many issues. We have run into wood chips blocking the opening but it's easy to knock them away and after almost a year of use we will shop vacuum it out (which is easier for us as we had to insulate the hose and connected the drain tube to PVC piping to drain it into our pond, away from our duck shed. If you don't have this issue then you could just lift it and dump it). In freezing weather you can run the bucket (we use an automatic garden timer on the hose) more frequently to keep the water going through the pipes and can put a separate in-bucket heater (I can find the brand of the one we use if you're interested) in for inside the bucket.

An awesome low maintenance way to go for otherwise high maintenance ducks!
