Question Anyone use a nose pump for water?

I'm looking at options to provide water for rotational grazing and I've been reading about the pasture pump--cows pump their own water from the water source (http://www.riferam.com/pasture/index.htm).

Anybody with success or failure stories?

Thanks

Thanks again, Agmantoo. I've been trying to get a couple of beehives built/painted so you saved me some legwork with the links.

I laughed at the tractor tire--most of our old ones have become sand boxes in the past. This is a definite possibility.
