    Going building a new shed to store hay/straw and will have sheep in it for 2 months too. 20 foot bays so using steel purlins. Considering non drip sheeting as have been told there will be condensation issues as using steel purlins as opposed to wood. Any thoughts or anyone have experience with non drip sheeting in sheds with sheep.

    I built a new one last year and didn’t go with them. The builder said with the level of ventilation there was no need. I was dubious but he was dead right. Never see any dripping

    Do you mind me asking what size and what ventilation you had. Did you have steel purlins?
