Winter wonderland
After yesterday's downpour, we are back to winter, it could be really annoying, if it wasn't so pretty

Re: Winter wonderland
The heavy wet snow almost brought down the pens because of the netting over them. Yuck and raw feeling here.

We take the netting down every fall, still remember the first year when we put it on, and freezing rain on the netting almost brought the kennel down,Killerbunny wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2019 6:13 pmThe heavy wet snow almost brought down the pens because of the netting over them.

you wouldn't think that the thin strands would be able to do it, but even with the kennel attached to the barn, the sides were bending in dangerously.
That was the last time we left the netting up.

Oh we knew that! 'nuff said LOL!
I must say though that the latest netting from Lee Valley that we got a few years back is garbage compared to the stuff you have.
