Dust Baths

[JillD413]

Okay - I do understand that dust baths are a good thing. But our girls take their “spa” time to another level. LOL! They have a spot that looks like they are trying to dig to China. They love to get in that spot and have a field day. I worry that they are kicking up too much dust. Is that possible? On the up side - they sure don’t have any external parasites.

That looks normal to me. My run looks like the surface of the moon there are so many craters in it.

Oh yes, it's amazing how deep they dig. Wish I could get them to dig where I want to plant, saves my having to get out the shovel
