[QUOTE="Half Pipe, post: 3624620, member: 45670"] there can be quite a bit of pressure on sleepers we use to shut up end of our high level slats, just lift 1 out at a time with bucket, then take a couple of scoops, before taking next 1 out. I don't fancy opening a door in 1 go, even fairly 'dry' dung from slat moves. we have a high level shed and a slurry tank shed at each farm, liquid from high level gets pumped to slurry to help mix it. would think most suckler cow diets will produce dung that needs liquid. high level sheds need a bit of thought about how its stocked, ie you don't want a few or smaller cattle in pen furthest from muck out end as be less dung which leaves a pocket for water to gather. A decent sized and shaped bucket with a west dual style spreader not Long shifting alot [/QUOTE]
