Here in the south we hit clay after 18 inches. I'm thinking of installing a little French drain away from the bucket as an alternative. Has anyone tried this?

We have one (a larger model) & it works GREAT - but it only 'digests' waste at temps above 40 degrees. Waste can be deposited in it year round though, and it's nice for all of us having a doodie-free yard to walk on! These are available through Dr. Fosters and Smith (catalogs and online).
