I didn't have the best of mornings yesterday. Probably 15 ton driving over 40 year old slats took its inevitable toll. What an absolute nightmare!! Posting because we got it out safely no one harmed and no damage to wagon or tractor!could have been a hell of a lot worse. It happened just at the end of milking and I was looking forward to a nice kip! Needless to say I didn't get my kip!

You drive a diet feeder over slats.?

We have a tank and several channels/slats round the yards and always makes me think when we drive over them with heavy loads, glad all was sorted with no injurys sustained, will it be a straightforward fix ?

Well that is what has made the potential disaster easier the drys are out so used the slats that were in those cubicles to short term replace the 2 twins we broke yesterday, and the lows went out yesterday which we planned, which also in hindsight made it easier. Only half of them were hungry getting fed 3 hours later! God knows how we didn't break anything on the tractor or wagon. But we had a back up demo triolet locally if the wagon went for a swim! We have to drive over the slats unfortunately, we are now thinking about concreting where we drive over, maybe not a silly idea!!

I've seen too many old single slats drop in with just cattle on them.

Driving over them the weak way. They are much stronger if running at 90degrees to you.
How did you get it out?

You would have to sit on the naughty step if the TB "police" saw you floor feeding down here!
