TOPPER 1,809 Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Thing to watch with barrels is condensation if it collects and runs down into the bedding what we have done with barrells is to cut i one inch slit at the top then put another piece over that with a 1/4 inch gap between them so they can breath 4 Quote Link to post
