Hail is very common here, too, but as it generally comes with strong wind from the Southwest the best protection is to have shelter from the wind on the windward side. Cages like that would need concrete slabs on top to keep them from blowing away here.
we must have more gravity here. these stay in place
I thought maybe varmints at first.
How many of these do you have? What happens if you aren't home?
Do you ever let them out so they can run and play?
it rains so little here you usually see it coming. but I can leave the covers on if I am not going to be around. THe plants run and play on moonless nights
@btroje at least the get out every now and then
Funny, I'm in western Kansas and we do see some hail. Sometimes BIG hail that takes out car windows, roofs and fence rails but the only time I ever saw hail so deep it could have used a plow, was when I lived in Albuquerque. It was at least 3-4" deep, people were driving like crazies. I had just been up to Sandia peak on my motorcycle and it missed me, I followed the storm into town. Stopped at my workplace which was closer and played pool until some of it melted as I wasn't thrilled by riding in it.
it must have to do with the abrupt change from mountains to plains.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
