There are also heated water bottles you can try or heaters you can attach to your current water bottles...or you can try insulating them a bit yourself by putting a sock over the water bottle and a bit of plastic bubble wrap around the nozzle...but not anywhere that your rabbits will actually be able to chew on and eat the plastic (not an easy task, I know.)

If I put fresh water in the bottles morning and evening, will the rabbits be okay if it freezes up an hour later? Won't the valve burst if it freezes? What about during cold weather?
