The worse one I ever had to work with was an old 300 gal galvanized water trough that a Neighbor lady was feeding her brood cows hay in. The trough was about six feet long and three feet wide an about 2 1/2 feet deep. She let the manure build up around the trough so it was only sticking about a foot out of the manure.
