Meaning that the muck is far shorter and easier to handle. It will effortlessly go through the spreader straight from the shed which means no need for making a midden, so it cuts out the need for double handling. I don't suppose worms care too much whether a bedder is used or not. One thing I would add is that I clean out the water troughs regularly with a home made seive to lift out any straw. Failure to do this will result in filthy water which is probably the ultimate form of animal cruelty.Better for who? You? The muck spreader? The worms?
so what was a twice a week job now becomes everyday task? And thats better hooking up and unhooking a machine?
