This was designed as a pig barn and we have no plans to raise pigs. The threshold of the door is, as you would expect, at floor level. I can pull up those floor boards and have access to the area underneath which I believe will remain at ground temperature (blue tilapia maybe?). The picture was taken facing Northeast so I have a lot of South-facing sun exposure. And the concrete block outrigging will support a gravel bed nicely I think.Originally Posted by davidstcldfl
