Archer,
Please do not hold your breath on the clay balls! You will go a funny colour.
The ground is very frozen and must thaw first, and before that, the foot or two of snow must melt. It has been cold this winter, and minus 30C to minus 38C or more not uncommon.
(Coldest recorded here was Minus 91F!.............with the wind they reckon.)
Froze a lot of cows that winter.
Re clay balls;
Been thinking how they could be made a consistent size. A mould with relief grooves to allow excess to 'squidge' out seems practical.
More than likely just roll a ball and see'f it fits!
