Water Buckets & Bucks

[thailand]

Hi, I need some help please. My buck, Jabari, keeps smashing his water buckets. So far he's smashed about 5 of them!

Anyone have any good ideas on how to keep him supplied in water/stop him from breaking his buckets?

It's the hot season here now (up around 100 degrees) so I really need a way to keep him hydrated (and I'm about to go away for 3 weeks and am leaving the kids in charge of him).

I have tried sitting his buckets directly on the ground, and that wasn't successful so then I tried hanging them from a hook up higher on the fence.....that hasn't worked either.

Many thanks for your help

Is there any place where you can put his bucket on the outside of the fence where he has to stick his head through the fence to reach it?

Good thinking! I'll try that tomorrow and report back here. Thanks
