F9

 I keep seeing the previews and I really don't want to see this movie.  It looks like it lacks a story or even a reason for being.  Adding Carti B to it makes it even less desirable.  Maybe they should have ended on the last one.  I will probably wait for streaming, unless my kids want to see it.  Missing it would not bother me.  

The Build Continues

 I started digging trenches.  Eventually, we plan to bury flashing.  I also found some cinder blocks.  I put Fabric Cloth down on the floor of one coop.  Now a predator can not dig under.  We are keeping the animals out of the run until it is fortified.  The chickens are getting along with the ducks.  I have not introduced the rooster into the pack.  One day I might.  Today, I looked up calves.  I found a place that sells them for $100.  We still need a fence and a system to keep out predators.

Predators

 When chicken farming, take predators seriously.  We have lost many chickens.  Even if you have a strong coop, you need to prepare for diggers.  When you do, do not leave any weak spots.  Some predators are relentless.  One went from one side to another.  They dug and found metal.  They dug some more and kept digging until they found the one weak spot.  Motion lights only work for so long.  It sure did not deter this predator.  It took out a rooster and a hen.  Maybe there was more than one.  Who knows!  Just remember, fortify your coops to protect your chickens!
