Water Trough for Horses, Cattle & More – Safe, Frost-Protected & Hygienic

A reliable water supply is essential for healthy animals. With the right water bowl, you ensure that horses, cattle, sheep and goats always have access to fresh drinking water. At Nedlandic you will find a wide range of water bowls designed for different requirements in stables and on pastures. If you have questions about installation or materials, our team will be happy to help.

A Variety That Fits Your Stable

Our range includes:

• High-pressure and low-pressure water bowls – ideal for stable installations or pasture use with water tanks
• Heated water bowls – ensuring water keeps flowing even in freezing temperatures
• Ball drinkers and models with float valves – suitable for different animal species and sizes
• Pasture pumps – for water supply without a fixed water connection

Whether in the stable or on the pasture, our solutions integrate easily into existing systems. The range is complemented by feed troughs, hay racks and livestock equipment for a complete setup in animal husbandry.

What to Consider When Buying

Water bowls must match the animal species, location and frequency of use. Important factors include:

• Height & positioning: The drinking height should match the size of the animals. A horse requires different dimensions than a lamb or a goat.
• Material choice: Plastic is lightweight, impact-resistant and splinter-free. Cast iron with enamel coating is particularly durable and easy to maintain.
• Water demand: An adult cow drinks up to 120 liters per day – the water bowl must therefore provide sufficient capacity and flow rate.

For transporting water or feed, we recommend our sturdy wheelbarrows, which are reliable even under heavy daily use.

Frost-Protected Water Bowls: Preparing Your Stable for Winter

When temperatures drop, standing water can freeze quickly. To prevent this, we offer frost-protected water bowls with integrated heating or as part of a circulation system. Alternatively, thermo ball drinkers and heating cables can be installed easily as an upgrade. This ensures that your watering system continues to function even during extended frost. Frost protection is especially important for outdoor housing and pasture watering systems.

Water Bowls by Animal Type – Suitable and Functional

Horses, cows, sheep and goats all have different needs. A water bowl designed for horses should be positioned differently than one for cattle or smaller animals. Young cattle, for example, require between 25 and 50 liters of water per day, while adult cows can drink up to 120 liters. Horses and foals often drink from ball drinkers or float-valve bowls depending on their housing conditions and location. Even for hobby farmers keeping sheep or goats, choosing a suitable plastic or cast iron water bowl is recommended. Our experts will gladly advise you in selecting the best solution for your animals.
