HerdHomes® Shelters
The original HerdHomes® shelter includes a low maintenance slatted floor over concrete effluent bunkers (either 1.2m or 1.5m deep).
There is no on-going maintenance requirements with effluent deposited within the shelter, because it simply falls through the slats into below storage bunkers.
