Re: Soaking beet pulp

["owens" <owensall@sierranet.net>]

Dear Cindy;
It soaks really well inside of five to ten minutes.  I put hot tap water on
it, walk to barn, load hay, walk to horses, leave it outside gate, put hay
in feeders, then feed beet pulp.  No complaints yet!  It does soak hot water
faster than cool or room temp, I always feed it that way.  They sure love it
when it is cold and rainy outside...like hot cereal.
