I did this kind of work all my life. I have built many houses including the one I live in. Sac-rete is all right for small jobs,but may I suggest something a little better. Frame your pen with 2x4 lumber. They are about three and one half ins. wide. You can get them at Lowe's or Home depot. You can also get wooden stakes there too. Nail all four two by fours together at their ends. Drive stakes around it to keep the concrete from bulging the sides. Level it or you may want a little slope on it to drain water. You can order concrete that is far superior to secrete from a concrete batch plant. You will need about 1 cubic yard for this. They may charge you a little more for a small amount,but its worth it. It is very hard to mix that much concrete by hand. If you order it it should be around 120.00 depending on where you live. I hope this helps.

it needs two be 2 inches at least to prevent cracks, and the ground needs to be quite hard below, ask google and you will get how to instructions. good luck
