Listening to the old and wise is smart In 2 ways. 1 if it works great it saved you time. 2 if it fails, you have someone to blame😂😂😂

Kitty litter is goid for alot of things . Oil spots on drive way..😺 liked it lol pups water pond . Great job .

Your Dad is a clever man. Hint: the cheaper the litter the better it should work. Take care.

You know Jared, that middle section is almost heart-shaped. If the kitty litter doesn't work, figure out a way to put a point at the bottom and a little bit in the upper part to make it a true heart and then your pond is a "Deep in the Heart of Texas" and you can tell people that you meant it to be that way.

I thought it was a ❤ deep in the state of Texas. Great work with the kitty litter Jared. Have a good evening.

Jared you are doing fine job love 💕 from Ohio Irene and god bless you do you ShootDang 🤠Jared

The dogs just love their life there! The little red one is your little buddy 😁

Jared this may help with the algae in the pond and it's free. Put a 1/2 of a coffee can of wood ash in the pond. If blocks the u.v from the sun and safe for the animals.

And it's in the shape of Texas! LOL

Awesome, I’m glad it’s holding so far! The clay kitty litter was a great idea Dad Crocker 👍

Cat used it before the fill up.❤️

Don’t tell me I’m the only one that noticed the cat “using” the kitty litter at 2:59! 😂

Ok so I just want to say that until I looked closer I didnt even notice that the pond was texas shaped lol that's really cool! It looks great full of water👍

Good idea !!! Kitty litter who would have thought! Dads are the best!!

Texas shaped pond! That is amazing!

Without even watching the video I can say YES, kitty litter will indeed seal a pond. Now there is a MUCH MUCH cheaper way to do it. Cat litter, especially cheap clay cat litter is made from bentonite. Bentonite is used for drilling mud and also a product known as "HOLE PLUG". As the name suggests it will plug up a hole and prevent fluid loss. You live in Texas, there are probably a million drilling supply companies that would've sold you 100#s of bentonite for around $4-$10. Also, in the future if you do another pond or a especially a larger one..... bentonite is the standard for pond bottoms in Sandy areas and there are even how much do you calcutors online to figure out how much you need based on the soil type and size of pond.

You have a very wise Dad.👍✌👋👋👋

Good idea, thanks!

I mentioned before that Bentonite is a great pond sealer Jared....and cheap too

Big old heart right in the middle of Texas pond!!!! Sure hope this fixes it! Doggies are loving it! Hey it is looking like Texas again!

Great job!

Well the dogs and cats think you made it specially for them.

Just realized you got Texas in your front yard!! Looks Sweet!

Good job

I sure hopes it works Jared because that TEXAS pond looks AWESOME in your front yard. I have always like it even when it had the windmill in it before the wind blow it over and messed it up. It just works in your yard with your house. Have a great evening Jared.❤️👍

I hope it works. Good luck! Almost 5k subs! Way to go!

Awesome. Keep trying, til ya find what works best. I also loved your Keeping it real about the animals and such. You guys will figure everything out between yourselves. I'm with you on everything you said.

The hair of water you lost was from all the cats and dogs acting like you just got home with groceries and ran to get some! Lol

Way to go....if the animals don't drink it all...😉 They seem to like it 🤗

The animals seem to be enjoying it⚘

Great idea Dad and Jared I hope it works. The dogs surely wee having a blast in it. Hope you have a great evening and see ya tomorrow. Thanks!

Awesome dude. The critters love your pond. I’m gonna try bentonite clay in my little pond. It has a liner but there is a leak. Cool vid brother

A Texas shaped pool. How cool!!!

that is awesome and glad it is holding really good so far...great job dad crocker and i give him big thumb up

I would get a pump to filter the water. You know what kind of pests love standing water. Or get fish that eat their eggs.

Fingers crossed it holds for a while. Looks very cool the shape. Take care of you Jared. Thanks for sharing eh :))

I noticed that the pond is a lot deeper in the center. Looks like there is a small drop off. So I'm wondering if some of the problem could be that the shallow areas around the pond just evaporate faster. Wonder if adding to the depth of the pond would help.

I watched the video and it looks great but if it does not work for a long period of time keep your eyes open for an above ground pool on the curb and cut the bottom to size. Most people buy these yearly and toss in the fall.

That must be a large Texas. Next suggestion would be a huge piece of thick plastic . It's cheaper than liner and will last for years. I salvaged some from a dried up pond left from the gas well drillers. I know how frustrating it can be but your pond looks great.

Great idea !!! Dad knows best!!!

Great idea. Hope your doing well. GOD bless you!

TYVM 💚 Good idea Jared.

Oh I hope this works.. I have a small pond that is seasonal and would love to make it hold water year round..

Great 👍 hope it holds

Well I would have never thought of that. 👍🏻

Good Idea! Any plans on a solar powered fountain in the middle-that would look cool.

Clever idea!! Hope it helps!!

Found this interesting! We have a swap out back that the neighbor next door and my husband clean out and fill up with water before it freezes. The kids love to ice skate. I am going to suggest the kitty litter for a side that needs some help!

Lol, that's your disappearing water, the dogs 🤣 Hope it works. It'll be a cheap solution. God bless ya bud

Good idea ! Cheap and easy ! Oh bye the way what about a pool liner ? Sorry I had too. You made me laugh when you said that !

A lot of the water loss could just be from evaporation.

I’m glad to see it worked. I was thinking you might have wanted a bit thicker layer. You can always add more later though.

Yup

did you see the kitty use it and hide it up after lol smart kitty

It’s certainly worth a try.. if it works, it’s a cheap fix..

Don't know if kitty litter is like bentonite, but bentonite might have been better.

I hope it doesn't result in drowned cats. Lol. I think the dogs are just drinking the level down.

How is it holding up????

Did it work in the long run the next day the next week the next month?

I remember your Dad telling you to try kitty litter during a live chat. I thought it was brilliant. What kind of plant is that directly behind the pond, in the Oklahoma area?

Should the dogs be drinking all that dust?💕

Is that clumping cat litter?

I am glad that it is holding the water but this might sound dumb to many but I am just curious. Will the kitty litter in the pond hurt the dogs since they drink from it?

Kitty litter is made entirely of clay. When wet, it gets hard. Water has a hard time seeping thru it then.
