RE: Thursday, March 25, 2021: Getting Real

Tons of information! 😍

No, the apartment isn't in the picture. It needs new siding anyways, but we'll be running another chain link up along it to keep them off it.

The metal fence all has concrete underlayment, so they can't dig under and get cut on it.

For the smell, we'll be adding copious daily wood chips so that any poop smell will be converted to compost smell. Justin Rhodes did the same, and reported that there was no smell from his two pigs in an even smaller area than this. That's actually the series that got me into this idea.

This corner used to be called the digging area. We've changed that first letter to "p" instead, but left the remnants of the digging, there'll be no shortage of wallows for the critters. As a matter of fact, the kids were using it as such just as I was setting the area up lolol I should have got a picture, they were filthy 🤣 and once the pigs are here, the kids will be banished from the area. Farmer-Sam-finished-pork just doesn't sound appetizing...
