We had a foot of snow last week and anticipate 2" - 3" of rain tomorrow and Friday (Christmas day). Plus it will get to 60 degrees, so a perfect recipe for flooding. I have a covered run, 80 square '. Has 6" of deep litter mulch. It's on a slight slope, so I built channels to divert rain away from it. Works well when there's no snow on the ground. But I know it won't manage the melt and heavy rain. (Also, run is enclosed by tarps for winter protection.)
The only solution I came up with was to buy extra bags of bark mulch to top off the litter after the storm, assuming it does get drenched. (Hated to spend the money, but all the extra mulch I have is buried under the snow. Ugh, I should have tarped it!)
Any other ideas out there?
