I’m putting in some 100 gallon troughs on the property and want a way to transfer water. Do any of you have experience with water bladders and have a paticular brand you’d recommend?

I wouldn't mess with the water bladder, and go for a 275 gallon or 330 gallon water tote and something like the pump setup above. Also, if time is valuable, a dinky 3/4" garden hose doesn't flow much compared to 1 1/4" or 1 1/2".
How are you filling up the main water tank to fill up the 100 gallon troughs?

Many of the water sources in my area went dry. It is a must for me to have a supplemental water source.

Last summer they would drink 300 gallons per week. Some of the new bucks that showed up did stay around. I would guess my fawn survival was around 60%.

All diff kinds of shapes and sizes with ATL. We used one on an offshore boat for years, was not careful with storing it either and it never had a problem. Hose connections come pre rigged ready to go as well.
Here are the potable water ones from ATL
