    new pond enclosure

    There is a saying in south Texas, if you don't like the weather, wait a day. We're going to be in the 70's saturday. Isn't -10 degrees close to absolute zero, where all molecular motion ceases.:::P:D:lol:

    new pond enclosure

    Unfortunately, no. IT IS CLOSE. Holidays, friends, weather (drizzle, no actual rain that I am in desperate need for) lazy, bla bla bla. (DONE IS BETTER THAN GOOD). Birds arrived already, option two put into play (actually like all the ducks interacting). When/if ever finished, have decided...

    new pond enclosure

    Ducks arrived, new pond enclosure not finished. Option two put into play. Band any species I already have so I can separate later, put them in the existing pen till new enclosure finished. So far everything looks good. Pretty crowded for a few days. My pair of mandarins thinking: there...

    new pond enclosure

    Today was one of those 'one step forward, two steps back' days. As far as keeping the water in, my soil is heavy clay and what little water I loose just helps the surrounding ground and trees. I can dig down 6-8 feet and hit water, clean, clear, SALT water. I have four water wells, ranging...

    new pond enclosure

    New enclosure started. Main shallow pond drainage complete, however want deeper water for divers. Thinking of using 21' boat as other pond that dumps water into lower shallower pond. Hope I can make the boat pond look good. Think it will be ready in a week? That's when the new ducks should...
