[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1720946, member: 28532"] I don't know anything about it, but aren't there folks who winter cows in deep bedded barns? If I understand it right, they keep adding bedding and just clean out in the spring. Why would this be any different? The curtains roll up, why would ventilation be a problem? I would think one could be modified fairly cheaply to work. Some rough cut lumber screwed to the posts to keep the calves off the wire walls. A couple big tanks set under the waterline tee's, get enough capacity to last 2-3 days between filling and just fill manually so no lines get down to calf level. Not the worst idea I've ever heard of, give it a try. The big money will be in filling the barn. Vac for pinkeye! [/QUOTE]
