grannys gone and done it

[Granny Hatchet]

Freeze water bottles to put inside the waterers.

Put out pans and bowls for them to dip their feet.

Hose down the bedding if you can, or a section of run.

Hang damp sheets on the walls of the run so a breeze blows through.

Give them watermelons, cucumbers, tomatoes, other veggie trimming.

thank you Camping, they are cages and babies. I did try veggies. they arent into that yet. Pillowcase over the cage ? no bedding wire floor

Pillow case, towel, tarp, whatever. They're on wire or the ground?

I've got those babies from Sally on the ground under a gazebo canopy. It's a few inches off the ground so there's airflow. The grass helps keep them cool I think.

they are on wire couple inches off another wire cage stacked. I felt more comfortable with them like that because of predators. mean roo is caged under them.

I was adding ice and water in a cake pan tray with frozen peas, grapes and other goodies. I also placed a frozen milk jug in the corner in the shade and they would sit close to it.
It seemed to be working.

Little science experiment for CB . He just put 3 water bottles full in the freezer. I made him take them back out and spill some water. He wants to know why. So I had him mark the water line.

I gave them the frozen spinach I made for them. Big ones seem to be ok. they have dirt and such to wallow in. their water is very hot too and its about 30 gallons . We are freezing some ice for it now as well.

tomorrow morning.
They are having some issues with their website right now so I will be calling them at 8 am!
Im excited.
My fenced didn't get built this weekend, but I will have them inside for atlas 2 weeks, so I still have time for that.
Also my car died yesterday. Dh thinks its the fuel pump...it has been too hot today to work on it so I think he is waiting for the sun to go down.
He knows (cars) so I am confident he will figure out what is wrong with it....just hope he gets it done before my long week starts.
I do a lot of running back in forth with kids during the week.
