Hopefully this will help the birds get out of the trough

Piece of wood floating works too.

Hadn’t thought of that

I had squirrels get in caught in my troughs.....I just bent a piece of field fence over the side & to the bottom of the tank, never had a issue since.

Ahhhh ... the chick cemetary here, good idea, think I'll take care of that when I get home.

Good job. Mowing one time I saw a gopher in a hole some kids dug. he couldn't climb out of. I tossed in some branches hopping he had enough sense to crawl out. Don't like to see an animal starve to death. That's why I don't like glue traps. Stan

I have had a half dozen squirrels and birds drown in the horse troughs. I ordered some stainless steel chain, bolts and nuts and put two chains about 18" long in the holes provided on the Rubbermaid tanks and dangled dow into the water.

Never had another animal drown since.

Our local conservation district sells expanded metal fixtures for birds to climb with.

We used to just throw in a small board or two.
Birds liked to land on it and take a bath!!

I hate to see an animal suffer to . I really do not like the glue traps

SVcummins · Oct 4, 2020
