Any suggestions on what to use?

How would I go about making a gate so I can go in/come out?

Asking my.mom if it's ok for me to set up something on her and her fiances property- it's owned by them, so no pesky landlord to need permission from

If I want to go the buying used items route for some/all of what I'd need, it seems to me that living in an area where there's a fair number of people that raise cattle may have some older but still useable things I could buy from them

In winter it rarely snows enough for there to be more than a very small layer of it covering the ground- but in the past...5 years maybe it snowed enough on two separate occasions that the areas I lived inat the time pretty much shut down.

We do sometimes have bad.storms come through, wind afaik hasn't reached hurricane level speeds as far inland as I am.

Ah, very true! With the not DIY kennel being allowed, I hope that means my DIY one will be too- but it's better to ask first just in case

I want them to be comfortable in both the very cold (the lowest it was this winter was in the low single digits- even the water in their bowl froze inside- only heater I have is crap), and the very hot- I think I already mentioned triple digits are.common.once summer really starts up?

Had to look up what you meant by cattle fencing- didn't know that was the name for thestuff. About how many feet would you recommend I buy? Depending on the cost, I may just get one roll to start with, expanding when I can afford to

Around where I live it seems like the basic stuff keeps going up (milk and eggs are the two to come to mind). Not sure if the shortage has started being felt in your neck of the woods

Is $70 a fair price for that much food, or is it more expensive?
