Looks like i have a hanging head sleeper temp home, going to see if Rosie an Alinta really want to be moms tonight.
Did a major clean out of the run yesterday. Removed almost 2 18gl totes full of dirt, poop, broken down straw etc. The cats have been using it as a litter box. 🙄 Since I never finished fencing it, this is not surprising. Hoping to remedy that today. I scraped and leveled then laid bricks around...

A new Wilco farm store location just opened near me, I went yesterday and they had lots of freebies 😁
Got a couple of signs
and this pretty garden stake.
