Perfect. Makes sense. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something, but with the boards catching most of the droppings, it sounds like it wouldn’t be cost effective and not adding much performance value.Since you're going with poop boards:

You might consider shavings on the floor, 1 or 2 bales a year would do the trick.
8x8 is a lot of PDZ and I'm not sure what the advantage would be.
Thanks!
