We tried to be a deep bedded barn, and use straw under the cows in the main barn. But it just didn't work well enough. But have no fear - sand is here! We always had planned the barn for both. Could it do sand and/or straw. It's a good thing we decided on that because we really like the sand now and won't be going back.
We still do have a couple of pens to bed with straw, which is why we're using out PICUS straw chopper on the skid steer. It works well, but not sure we'll keep it given it's a big capital investment that we really don't use very often.
But before all of that, we work at splitting some fire wood. The source: some old barn beams.
Happy watching!
