I love my manual no electric mower. I literally go out to my backyard while I let the dogs out, mow about 20 feet and give the catcher full of grass to the girls. I can do this in less than 2 minutes. Since my husband cuts grass with his JD riding mower without bag, I bought an electric mower with bag initially but dragging around the cord was a hassle. It's been raining here as well but the girls still got their greens whenever rain stopped. I wish we didn't have so many hawks around but I found a way to get pastured eggs! Combination of dry straws and grass is the best I found for my run. You should also try to raise the run ground level or dig a trench around to divert or drain water away from the run as much as possible.
