[QUOTE="yoki, post: 9068240, member: 2923"] Unless you're going to be feeding hay don't even consider straw bedding. On silage you'll need double the amount of straw and the beasts will still always be filthy. If feeding hay however, a small number of cattle, and you've room to store the straw and don't mind the work bedding, then I'd have no qualms about going for straw. For me anyway there's something about stock in a nice straw bedded shed that you'll never get with them on any sort of slatted floor. [/QUOTE]
