~ I am not sure about the pitch, it is hurricane code, rated for 170mph winds. The doors are rated for 240mph winds.View attachment 337198View attachment 337199View attachment 337200View attachment 337201

What is the size of the building? Looks like a standard 4/12 pitch.
Different subject, do you have mealybug problems with your cactus? If so what do you do to treat?

Beautiful buggers you have! Seems like they are still on the path to grow, how old are they? Do they eat mounds of grass daily because of their size? (I am talking about the torts ofcourse???)

Question for you, some of my cactus plants this year are not as green. Looks like they are not going to have many flower buds or new growth. Have you ever had this problem?

~ Moved the breeders to Wet Camp, went way better than expected. Decided to use an open top trailer due to the short distance, etc., the males seemed to load much easier with minimal hesitation @ ALDABRAMAN.
