Any suggestions what best finish would be for straw bedded calve pens to try to keep straw drier for longer but also not a pain to clean out.
Pens will be 18'x10' with 8' tank at feed fence so 10' square of concrete to 'drain as much as possible into tank. How much fall can it have without causing straw to head for the tank? Any help/experience appreciated.
Current old pens just sit soaking in calf pish all the time, does not matter if cleaned daily or left in a deep bed, never seems to be dry for them.
