andymospit Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've read about using auboise in the run, with a layer 3-4 nches thick, how do you stop it from dropping through the mesh ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 You put something there to stop it. Some have put plastic lawn edging, some have put lengths of gravel board or similar. I haven't bothered...the bits that flutter out help dry out the mud I find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hen Watch Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have my run on grass with about 1 inch of Auboise on the grass. I should really rig up some proper boards around the edge (and there are some good pictures on this forum and gallery of what others have done) but I actually just put a few bricks along the eglu skirt to stop them kicking it out of the run.

Laura & CTB Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 My run is on paving slabs and I used the log edging strips all the way round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
