    Just setting out... pig arc built with salvaged galvanise... seems i need a floor in it after reading on here... have some pallets so hopefully they cover whole floor...

    just wondering what people use for water trough system... do i need continuous feed or can i show inspector I have a trough and say will be filling it with a hose from a tap daily to begin with??

    no need for a ball cock drinker or anything fancy like that, a bucket of water is grand, as long as it holds enough and they won't turn it over

    ah super thanks... land was an old tree nursery so is plenty of big square plastic pots... going to screw a couple on to a length of timber weigh down... will do the trick nicely so...was worried about water hook up ... super
