do you use tank heaters for animal water in conditions like this?
i saw your IG post about plastic snapping from the cold - i didn't know it could do that! does it happen rapidly, or over a somewhat longer exposure to that kind of cold? here, the UV from the sun makes plastics brittle very rapidly (sometimes in a matter of days; invariably in a matter of weeks) and they get weak and then shatter at any time of year - outdoor quality plastic is its own specific thing and kind of hard to find.
i am not looking at you funny but rather, interested in understanding your lived experience of our very different climates. :)
