    My experience is that cattle panel is easier, well, safer than HWC. I used bungees when creating my hoop coops.

    Thank you. I first saw cattle panel trellises on Gardener Scott's YouTube channel. You can bend them yourself if you are careful. Stand on the panel at one end, facing the end, reach down and grab the end with both hands. Slowly step back, staying on the panel and pulling the end toward you...

    Update on the Naked neck rooster: He disappeared, and I felt bad that he might have been killed. But this afternoon as I was in my backyard I saw my neighbor, the one with chickens. Yes, it was his rooster, and it found its way home, is back in the run safe. Happy ending.

    Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

    I worked in an offset press printing shop for a couple years. We had a sign on the wall "All orders needed yesterday must be placed before noon tomorrow".

    Chick Updates! Friday...the July hatch is 4 months old: Claudia and Jacob Jacob, Claudia, and Lois I've heard some pretty good crowing attempts, must be Jacob. No issues between him and Zaccheus so far.

    Updates! Frost was forecast, so on Saturday I set up trellises to use as greenhouses. Here's one over my main carrot crop: Didn't have enough cattle panel left for a full trellis, but this was enough to cover lettuce and Chinese cabbage Starting to "head"! I covered all the garden beds...

    I enjoyed it. It reminded me of butterfly mimicry between Monarch and Viceroy butterflies: https://njaudubon.org/monarchs-and-viceroys-a-tale-of-mimicry/

    My mother made applesauce fruitcakes every year, less fruit than the store-bought bricks. She'd bake them after Thanksgiving, then pat them with sherry daily until Christmas. It made them moist. And delicious.

    I put a pile of sunflower seeds on the shed steps while he was observing me, said "chick chick" but he didn't approach. There are plenty of water sources including two small ponds, and several container water gardens.

    No. If he were friendly I might be able to do more. He runs away when I approach. It's about 5am, and I just heard him crowing next door. He must have nested elsewhere. That means he could clear a 4' fence.

    I suspect so. No one can see my chickens from the road, and I'm the last house on a deadend street, so if he was dumped it wasn't necessarily due to my flocks. I'm starting to feel sorry for him, but don't want him aggravating or infecting my birds. Naked neck or turken or...? No tail...

    First frost, not a hard freeze. Chicken waterers were fine, not even a skim of ice.
