I have just changed over to wood pellet bedding and to start with they were great. I did what I thought was best and took the poo out daily, raking the top and leaving the bottom as much as possible. However by the end of a week the whole bed was quite wet. So I mucked it out properly.
This week tried to take the poo out daily and a bit of the wet, while turning the bottom over and again about 6 days in found the whole bed was fairly wet so had to do a full muck out, there was a lot of clumped stuff.
Doing it this way I am taking out a barrow a day (between two ponies) and then 2 barrows per stable when i do a full muck out.
ETA: Am adding around 2 bags of new a week (not wetted) per stable
Can I do anything differently?
How do you do yours?
