Perfect outdoor run idea!!!

[Faunn]

I was thinking, and thought, "Whouldnt it be a great outdoor run professionally made?" I looked through the yellow pages and found a place. Im calling to see how much, but it will be a 3ft tall 'good neighbor' wood fence and I'm covering it with chicken wire! The area isnt to big, but I have to ask my parents first. What do you think? I'll put photos up soon!

sounds like a good idea but before you buy tell post the price. I made my run for £30. It is a 6x4foot.

Mosquito netting covering it would be wise as well so that the insects dont get to your piggies.

Thanks for the support! I need to SO ask my parents before anything, and I was going to put some grassrolls from Home Depot because theres no grass there. Would those be safe?

Since your in CA you could plant some wheatgrass in there. It grows fast and tall and piggies love to romp through it and eat it and you would also know that it was chemical free since you planted it and grew it.

Thanks, I'll try, but there isnt much sun...I tried once and it didnt work, it might work again..Thanks!

I have found that if you start the wheat grass indoors and then plant it outside it seems to do much better than trying to start the entire thing outdoors. If you need any information on how to do it let me know.

Thank you!

Sorry but what is that? I like the wheat grass idea though.

 

[Faunn]

What is what?

I'm assuming a grass roll means sod.

Oh, ok, just wondering! ^_^
