No such perfect innovation exists for our hobby. But does the failure of a vital piece of equipment constitute new husbandry skills? Maybe. Up to the individual. I apologize for wrecking havoc on behalf of my "bad luck". I figured blaming the equipment rather than pointing the blame on patty would alleviate some of the "What did I do wrong?" syndrome that comes with a catastrophy. The initial impact of what took place I am sure was devastating. But the aftermath of the week later is 10 fold of what occurred. I know I am attatched to my livestock. The only "true solution" by putting heads together would be to move forward. Ever have problems with one piece of equipment and find several temporary solutions? And then, to find that different placement, surrounding circumstances, less flow, more flow, is what finally fixed the problem.
But what if it is the product?
