    Add hardware cloth. I also use hardware cloth on the bottom. I cover the ground with straw. Chicken wire poses no threat to raccoons, possums, weasels or any predator bigger. They will dig underneath your frame to get in. I also use a solar powered motion activated light. They do not like to be seen. It startles them and they run away. Love your video though.

  • @ntaft0904
    @ntaft0904 3 года назад +32

    Hate to be the bad news bear but your chicken wire is no match for a raccoon. The other issue is that most other predators will just enter under the 2x4 frame. Little gaps and the dirt will let most anything in. Don't ask me how I know. Your location makes it highly nessessary for a extremely fortified build.

    • @rosebatham3342

      I have a dog kennel and I just lay cattle panels along the ground on its perimeter anchored down to inhibit digging

    • @dstock5890
      @dstock5890 Год назад +1

      Yes, I would have used hardware cloth. It holds up better. We have chicken wire on our run and zip ties pop off all the time and then there are gaps. Live and learn!

    • @greghercher2068
      @greghercher2068 Год назад

      ​@@dstock5890 only zip ties I would use on something like this are the stainless steel ones and that would be expensive compared to just getting fencing wire and stitching it through the whole thing.

    Don’t let your hand get too bad before you have a doctor look at it. I had a problem with my right hand that I ignored for months. I ended up having to go through a round of physical therapy and then two separate cortisone injections. I still have pain when I use it too much now. The only option I have left is surgery. I definitely don’t want that. I love your channel and your awesome family.

And 1 buff hen is my lap baby. 3 months old and loves to be held and stroked! Lol! I want to use your idea for a chicken shelter for when they are out and it rains! Great idea! Can't wait to do...by myself! Your video makes me feel confident to do this!

    What a fun simple project. Hope your finger is better. I did that to my thumb and when I looked online I found out it was a trigger finger, bought a thumb brace and kept it on until it healed....I think it was gone in 4-6 weeks.

    if you look at the color patch on the chickens 'cheek', you will see what color eggs the easter eggers will lay. Chicken wire keeps chickens in, not coons out. learned that one the hard way. Might want a light in there for this cold next few days.

    Your trigger finger can be resolved by a simple cutting of the surrounding sheath of the tendon. It’s done with a local anaesthetic and takes bout 10 mins.

  • @greghercher2068
    @greghercher2068 Год назад +1

    I'm realizing that a person could possibly put the chicken wire and hog panel pieces together and then hoop them inside the frame making it so the chicken wire is tied to the inside of the 2x4 and better secured.

  • @shawndonohoe2789
    @shawndonohoe2789 3 года назад +1

    A weasel will get in at any hole not covered with chicken wire. They will also dig under the base. If one gets in it will kill all the chickens, they need a solid coop for at night.

    Hello, I'm enjoying your videos very much and learning from them a few things, also I wanted to comment about your finger, I had that before and that is it called trigger finger, the Dr had to cut the tendon to free the finger, in time if left as it is I can be very painful to reopen that finger, hope you get well soon. God Bless you guys.

    I get the same problem while working with hand tools for long hours. It's at its worse in the morning when waking up.
    Unfortunately, lots of power tool work (holding onto that drill's pistol grip) also can cause the same problem.
    It goes away after a few weeks without treatment.
