Everything is starting to grow in Oso, Crush and Tonka's outdoor enclosure. Do you guys think there is too many plants in there? Will they be able to walk through it okay once everything gets bigger?

Wow! So cool....I don't know if there is such a thing as too much????? This year there was such awesome growth...my guys yards had yummies everywhere...now it looks like there was never lushness abound....I am do the new plantings periodically....but believe I would love the problem of too much...LOL .... but then again all of mine are grown eating machines....

For fun this am I put a big ole pile of dandelion flowers/greens, parsley, romaine,elm leaves and mimosa leaves.....down for each of my guys...then when I made my way back past my old man Humphry and so I went in the house and grabbed another big ole scoop of the salad mix and put it in his yard...behind where he was laying....in like 5 seconds he got up...did a 360 and looked at the pile like....hey, bitchen...how'd I miss that and ate every bit...then went into his hide...wont see him till tonight ...LOL

I bet your three amigos will be up to the challenge of mowing down a path....

That's awesome! I'm on the fence about getting seeds from them because they shipping is so outrageous, but this is making me rethink that (especially since they grow so fast!). I think once it gets closer to fall, I'll have to order from there :D

No, don't pull any of it. But, when the chia starts to grow tall, keep it cut down with the scissors. Once it gets over 6" tall, it develops a hard stem and babies can't bite it.

Thank you for the advise, I will make sure to do that.
I was wanting to plant some flowers in there for them to eat too. Do you know of any flowers that they like to eat here in AZ?

I think i planted this about 1 1/2 weeks ago and it already look like this. Their seed mix works really well, even after throwing down a ton of seed i still have over half a bag left. I bought some of their single seeds like the Chickweed and i'm not having very much luck with those.
It did take about 1 1/2 weeks to get the seed from them though.
