[QUOTE="Dave, post: 983881, member: 498"] I use wood chips and so do lots of others around here. They work great. There are two down sides I can think of. If you clean them out with the manure they can take a while to break down out in the field. The second is if they do start to break down in the pen (the timeline for that will depend of wood type, climate) and you add some rain it will turn into a real serious sloppy mess. The good news is when spread on the fields it will help the organic matter in the soil. [/QUOTE]
