Just done a plastic barrel for my terrier , never used them before was wondering about condensation , there’s 2 bung holes in 1 side (which was the top when in use) will that be enough to stop condensation or would you advise I drill a few holes in others side , any info would be appreciated ??

Never had problem with condensation when I used them.

I had mine sat on 2 lengths like DC

with the lid I cut across about third up the lid then around so the entrance was like half  circle hole ?

Replacement lids are penny's if you got chewers? picture frame around it with Ali L trim for the worst offenders?

Funny thing was they never did chew them yet the black shepherd lurcher chewed shit out the wooden kennel before when she  was in season ?
