shut the bottom aprons off and run the small apron that feeds out to the bunk empty in cold weather...those small aprons will freeze down in cold weather...specially if they're outside.

Couple 3 to 6 inches of dry loose feed on the bottom big aprons in cold weather keeps those from freezing too.
Can be a bottom layer of cracked corn if your feeding cattle....just used to doing that with ground hay, ground stalks, ground whatever dry roughage.

ONE other thing about keeping sileage off a wagon apron floor...is that floor will stay in shape for YEARS longer too. ( no acid eating it up ).
