Sounds like he's going to need a sheet and maybe even boots. Not fun to deal with.

No matter what you ...Oh boy, such a sensitive baby. No matter what you do, whether it be a fly sheet (which will make him bake in the sun), fly spray (which will wear off), or feed through garlic (which only kind of works), he will be getting harassed. That's the problem with these small turnouts, and Lucy has the same issue - they have nowhere to go to get away from the flies, especially the big biting flies.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08707037151404133158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407055887295685834.post-60058249478519262322013-04-08T20:50:41.543-07:002013-04-08T20:50:41.543-07:00I feel your pain.

He gets covered in hives if bugs touch him, poor guy. :-/<br /><br />Glad Charlie sounds like an easier fix.SprinklerBandithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02948487857418394022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407055887295685834.post-61735955495249853092013-04-08T20:22:12.087-07:002013-04-08T20:22:12.087-07:00I have one like this too...
