The Automatic Stall Waterer From RAMM
Mikie Disbrow talks about installing the automatic stall waterers (Mikie and AJ, seen in the video, are from RAMM)
On all of our waterers at our farm we have used a PVC Tube minimum of 8″ diameter (max 12″ diameter, bigger is better). You do not have to use the specific sleeve as described in the instructions as the concept will be achieved by using a PVC tube as well (the pvc is more cost effective). The idea is to tap into the earth’s geo-thermal heat to keep your water line from freezing. The rule of thumb is to take the tube/sleeve below your frost depth, our frost depth is 42″, however, we took our tubes down to about 84″ deep to ensure we would not have any freeze up in the winter. The shut off valve is a standard in line shut off valve and will correspond in size to the water line you run. The shut off valve is not required for the waterers, it is more of a convenience for maintenance if needed. Shut off valves will run a few dollars a piece, and from my experience are worth it as you can isolate a waterer and shut it off if needed. We used 3/4″ black poly water line for all of our waterers and they work just as they should. All of the water pipe, fittings, and shut off valves will need to be purchased based on your layout/configuration.

Hold Your Horses… with RAMM Equine Gates!

Hold Your Horses
I really didn’t think too much about gates, until my horses got loose. Six horses, 24 pounding hoofs, and six tails flagged to the wind! They were the happiest horses in Ohio. Of course, my immediate fear was injury occurring to horse or human, especially with our busy road, children out playing, or Good Samaritans stepping in to lend a hand. Fortunately, my horses are obsessed with their grain. So with a shake of the bucket, and a little creative waving, and calling, I had them safely back in their pasture with the gate closed.
It can happen to even the most-conscientious horse owner. We get used to the routine, and double-check everything before heading to the house. But once in a while, distractions and busy schedules intervene.
For obvious convenience, most gates are placed at high traffic areas. Horses learn very quickly the access route to the barn where they are groomed, get attention and best of all, eat. The repetitive positive reinforcement they receive every time they pass through the gate is the reason horses push and shove or stand and paw the gate area.
