So to cut a long story short I ran out of wood shavings after I had filled the girls bedroom, so they have been living on fleece for 2 days.
I don't think they know what to make of it. Of course there was a lot of zooming around and investigating when it was first put in, but after that they were a bit wary to come out of their bedroom and watched from the doorway.
I haven't made my mind up what I think about using fleece yet. It looks pretty, but then looks so messy once they've dragged hay and pooped across it. Spot cleaning is really easy, but it makes me feel a little neurotic- I think I must have shaken it out about 4 times today because I didn't like it looking messy :red
It's alot easier to clean than shavings and looks alot nicer, and hasn't started to smell yet (touchwood) I'm sure it will by tomorrow with 4 girls peeing and pooping!
The girls now they are used to it seem to like it, after the an hour in a shaded run, Esme really appreciated the fleecy softness and fell fast asleep!
And stretch... (chookies)
The food still tastes the same on this soft stuff!
This is my magical, poop-multiplying corner!
All pigtures are of Esme! I nearly got one when she was fast asleep on her side, I crept up to the hutch (camera at the ready), opened the door and she looked at me to say 'You woke me up for that?'
I'm still waiting to get a pigture of Rosie asleep, my little sheepy! No chance with the other two, they are still way to wary to fall asleep in full view
