Rock wall garden edging - Part 1

 Removing excess soil

It's surprising how much soil washes in from the top garden level through the rock wall to overfill the narrow garden bed. So much that the metal garden edging is bulging out in places and looks unsightly.

I actually started this job a couple of day go by digging or rather scooping out soil along the back of the edging.

Chook run tidy again

Speckles will be happy that everything is back to normal.

After finishing and tidying up in the chook run we are back outside to finish backfilling the pebbles.

Getting ready to staple the edge of the cage wire.

 Finishing inside the cook run.

As posted yesterday before I can finish the last bit of pebble backfilling there's some work to do inside the chook run - in that corner..

We stopped back filling here.

Backfilling the drain

Weather cleared nicely; was able to go out and do some more like back fill the drain with soil and back fill the top end of the PVC pipe with gravel.

Connecting PVC pipe to corner grate

Mixing up some mortar in a spare chook tray bed which is actually a kitty litter tray screwed to a chipboard base. I say 'spare' because we only have one chook left (Speckles) all the others are gone.

 Prepping to put in the 90mm PVC storm water pipe and connect to the corner grate.

About to spray paint the top of the PVC pipe Brunswick Green lol so it blends in with the backfill pebbles.
