I have butted heads with my father in law or (old fool) no disrespect but... over air flow in the barn. Well he likes to "tighten up the barn", as he says, I mean close every window, put saw dust on the floor by the cracks under the door, or feed bags, hes just nuts. Well you go in the barn and the windows are dripping wet, the walls the doors, and even the dam scrapers and pitch fork handels are wet to touch. He has a fan set at 50 degrees, sometimes its off sometimes its on. I like to leave the windows open to let in some fresh air, and I read in Hoards, you need as much air coming in as you have going out! We fought with him for useing no bedding in the concrete tie stalls, so my wife, and her mother finally forced him to buy rubber mats. Now were dealing with this stupid mentallity from the 20s, of "tighting up the barn" buy the way these are beef cows, not dairy. Anyway how can I balance a resonable tempature and a warm barn with out it dripping wet from the cows breathing in there. Not 80degrees or anything. How do you guys go about ventalation in the winter. Thanks JayinNY

You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
