[QUOTE="bitwrx, post: 7867867, member: 86972"] I was transferring it from one chamber to another. The chamber it is going into is at the far end of the shed. It empties out slowest, so over the years it has accumulated most dry matter. We have a stirrer now, so gave it a stir before emptying it. Still didn't clear all of the shitberg, so we refilled with runny slurry from the other end of the shed and went again. Worked better second time, but still a way to go. (Background is that a food processing plant shut down last year, which meant we lost one of the ingredients for our liquid feed. The new ration contains twice as much barley. The barley husk floats to the top of the slurry, causing merry hell with all aspects of slurry handling, right from the slat through to the dribble bar. Alternative rations are being investigated, but we still have some shitbergs to clear.) [/QUOTE]
