Big hole in the ground under the cows and shed, Slatted passages (Helps foot health) Slalom system (eliminates mixing problems) The only problem is you said cost was an issue!

I’m with eulb, not too wide so it can be covered if needs be and I’d definitely make it out of concrete so it can be cleaned out with your own machine rather than getting a contractor

Thanks for the input guys. We're on sand at the moment and love it as a bedding, but i do know people doing well on mattress and sawdust/envirobed. Sand is a bugger to handle, but i like the idea of sticking a tower up and being done with it.
Anyone put in a concrete lagoon recently, mind sharing a ballpark cost? Ours went in over 30 years ago so no idea now!
What have people paid/been quoted recently per cubicle price of a concrete kerb filled with sand vs solid concrete platform with decent mattress? Again, 30 odd years since our current ones went in!

I’ve also been looking at my storage options,
Mine is for a satellite lagoon on my silage block, half mill gallon.
120k for a concrete lagoon
80k for a tin tank
20k for a lined hole
8k for a dirt lagoon
Soil samples have been sent but i’m hoping it’s going to be the bottom one

Weeping wall, or am i 20 years out of date?
Can’t see the point now as the liquid will now have to be stored as the likelihood is you won’t be able to spread in the winter.
I’ve been considering one,roofed over and with access from all sides so I could tip box muck on with the loadall,I would fill it once a year then let it drain out.
