I'll make a multi part suggestion on the mulch. First off, if you need that much and you have to buy it, you're much better off buying by the scoop. Most places will tell you what size scoop they sell, probably around a cubic yard. Google it and you will find a formula to figure how much you need to go how ever many inches deep you need in a given area. better yet, here ya go:So I found 3 leftover bags of mulch, hiding in the weeds by the giant cactus.
I went ahead and spread them near the waterer in the new pen, trying to keep the muck out of the water at least.
After knocking the pile down, then letting the chickens spread it a bit (and find all the bugs in it from sitting by the cactus for over a year) I realized that it would take oh, about 200 bags to cover the pen to a decent depth.
What is that in pickup loads?
We are hopefully going to pick up truckload #1 tomorrow, so I can at least have a muck free path thru the pen.
Really REALLY hating the rain, and the fact that more is expected Monday.
Did I mention the fact that I need to help reset 250' or so of fence from our flooded creek?
My horse and donkeys are in the small field, and the sheep and goat are in the back yard of the mobile home next door.
gosh that is a bad incident sounds like they maybe a little jealousy issue going on -like they can roam and can't kind of thing just my opinion I'm not claiming to be an expert trainer or anything like that I wish you a lot of luck with that issue
Sounds interesting...is there an admission charge if you don't exhibit and just want to look..?Okay everyone.. Christmas is done, time to look ahead. So let's jump-start our planning. EIGHT WEEKS til the show in Newnan. Who's going this year!Are you going just to look or to show? I LOVED it last year even in the crummy, rainy weather. Here's hoping it'll be pretty this year.
I don't believe there is, unless I'm just forgetting. I seem to remember they were letting just any old body in.. Case in point..
Ha...! I'm 100 miles away but still might try to make it...sure it would be interesting.I don't believe there is, unless I'm just forgetting. I seem to remember they were letting just any old body in.. Case in point..
