jojo_7o Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hi I've just set up my new Eglu today for my 2 babies (Rosie and Ginger) and I'm a little bit nervous. Will they be warm enough at night and what happens if it's raining during the day - has anybody on the forum divised a shelter system for the front entrance, so the rain doesn't drive in? I know you most likely think I'm potty but I'm not normally like this. Once they've settled in I'll be fine but it's just the uncertainty right now.

Karen & co. Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hi I don't keep GP's in my eglus but do cover the run with corrugated plastic held on with bungie ropes, other keepers use a clear pvc showercurtain to keep the rain off (Ikea apparently!!) Lots of hay in the eglu to snuggle up in, and a dry draft-free run and they should be fine karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo_7o Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hi Thanks for the warm welcome and the advice; I'm off to get some corrugated plastic. My girls seem to have taken the move without a hitch, I secretly watched them earlier running in and out, having a wail of a time. Phew! When it was time for bed I threw a load more hay so they will be really snug now. Thanks again Jo Rosie Ginger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
