I have been trialling two different wood pellets along side one another with interesting results that I thought you might like to share.......
Both horses in 12 hrs a day and wee for England! Skip daily with once a week wet removal
This is a weeks wet out of the 'premium' bed (and he is normally the wetter out of the two!)
And the weeks wet out of the cheaper pellet bed (but not a 'cheap value' pellet) Still only one trip to the muck heap tho!
And after 4+ weeks use these are the beds after a quick mix up with some green gloop/water (helps with freshness/fly repellant purposes) and relaid for another week of quick 5 min skip outs and a quick sprinkle daily from the watering can in hot weather.
Premium Bed (to which I have only added 2 (15kg) bags since I set it up!!)
'Other' bed (to which I have added 4 (15kg) bags, one after each 'clear out' )
