I cannot wait for the grass to grow; the first year i sowed grass seed it was beautiful, lush & green. I am so hoping for the same this year but if not i will turf it. If anyone has any top tips to help grass grow i'd love to know.
 
AWW - it's going to be piggy paradise. How clever to keep one corner for chilling out for yourself!
 
Thanks very much everyone :)
I shall hopefully update pics showing lovely green grass :)

Keli i have 12 piggies & 2 buns.

Flips thanks for speedy grass growing thoughts :))
 
How cool is that!:(|) it must be realy exciting now waiting for the grass to grow to finally get the piggies out there in their piggie palace! they will be popping about all over the place! I like the idea of the tube buried have you sowed grass seed over that too? wicked!;)

Very nice! The tunnel looks esp good - great idea.

I can't wait to see them on there!
 
OMG, what a lot of hard work you have done for your piggies. It looks really lovely. I don't know about the piggies seeing it, I can't wait to see more 'in progress' piccies, lol. Well done to you. :)
 
It's absolutely brilliant, I especially like the netting over the top nice and high up - my girls want to know if they can come and visit please!
