They only really need a wallow if the weather is hot, i wouldn't bury a bath in ground as they might fall in and drown! Just keep tipping some water in the same place and they'll make a wallow themselves if they want it, dry but bloody cold and frosty here this morning so mine have had a munch, a drink of the warm water i used to melt the ice on their water trough and sodded back off to bed! Wish i could.
