A couple weeks ago, I dug a rock out of the middle of the back yard, leaving a small hole just big enough to trip over. So I took a big pot of dirt left over from a dead plant and dumped it over the hole, thinking it would pack down over time and fill in the hole.
My girls had other ideas. It is now their favorite dustbathing spot, and what had been a small hole is now a big and growing hole.
Now, I am happy for them to dustbathe, in any of the half dozen spas they have already made in the back yard. But this is the middle of the lawn, and they're digging up my grass. Does anyone know how to encourage them to pick another spot?
I have plans to put a tub with ash and DE in their run for pest control. Is it too much to hope that they'll like it so much they'll forget about digging up my lawn?
Suggestions, anyone?
