I put in my plans to make 4 8'x12' pens for the does so I can rotate them to the next pen while the other recovers. The boys however will have to settle with their 4'x,12' pens.

I was planning to install underground burrows for them to go into and rest to get out of the heat, as well as plenty of shades areas. Being able to choose their location, they can choose their comfort level, so during the heat of the day they can retreat underground, and when it is cooler in the mornings and at night they can venture out. :)I plan to plant some blackberry shrubs and a large tree to give them some shade, as well as a few other misc bushes.
