Recycling, The Tryst Inn Way

[trystinn]

The old rabbit pen has been flipped upside down, netting attached on the top to keep the cheekins in our yard and set on the far side of the East Wing of Bunhalla. The old rabbit hutch is set in front of it against the fence, the bottom section now has a passway sniped out so the cheekins can get into the coop. I left the front facing out so I can use the front doors to feed, water and grab chickens. That little doorway cut in front on the bottom section can be used when we want the gals to forage in the yard. Especially important since one of the cheekins loves to hang out with the Home Flock.

Martha, predictably, is horrified to be living next to Cheekinheim (That's all alfrecht's fault, btw). We'd rescued her from a tiny wire cage inside a coop, so we'll nee to be especially generous with her. Cheekinheim is truly ugly, but we'll be improving that soon as the grunt work is done.

Once the Dinner Flock is taken care of next week, I'll get the rabbit rescue volunteers over to re-fence it and then I'll move her and the Bunboys back into the West Wing which should improve her attitude quite a bit. We've been asked to rescue another little girl bunny - a chinchilla and former rabbit show winner! We can likely do this next Thursday the 22nd after we fix the West Wing, anyone who wants to come by to volunteer - we hope to start about noon. The roofing project is scheduled for the 24th, same volunteers and same plea. :)

The boys managed to move the fence, though we need another section to complete. The guys are going to grab another section at Home Despot. In the meanwhile, the dogs are completely wiped out and so am I!

You need a handful of portable panels like I have. 4x8 foot 2 by 2 frames with poultry netting on them. I can use awning bungies to make them into what I need. Will save your bacon.

Sounds wonderful, I'll see if we can get those made up when everyone is here for a Bun Work Day. :)
