    New to June Bugs in my part of California. My cat is useless and they upset my 110lb (also useless) pittbull when they collide into him at night 😅 This is brilliant. I’ll save them for my friends chickens 🙌🏾 Thank you!

    We’ve not had any issues since that hot wire was installed on top of the field fence. The young dogs do tend to want to test the limits. They will get over that in time. Good luck!

    I don’t see the purpose of the shaft being so long and requiring another bearing at the bottom. A good solid piece of wood would not require that. Also at the bent “formed” area of the spinning plate, I would use that to put two fingers facing down into the bottom and use them as wipers to expel all the feathers. Good work

    Since farmland properties (in general) are getting bigger not smaller. So some farmers are removing hedge rows. Not sure how I feel about that knowing why they were put there in the first place.

    I laughed out loud when you said "mad armadillo." haha. I also have a dog named Cheyenne. She is a white lab/dogo argentina mix. The best dog ever. She is thirteen and slowing down, but roams the property with me doing chores and caring for the garden, goats, and chickens. Never leaves my space. My watchdog. Your Cheyenne reminds me of my Pyrenes "Jonah." What a wonderful dog he was. Thanks for the laugh.

    Thank you for sharing this info. I have an amazing Pyrenees that does a beautiful job of watching our small farm. I have been concerned with her throwing her body to the ground and shimmying under the fence and running from pasture to pasture. It bothers me way more than her. I feel more confident know it’s common. I appreciate your simplistic and unpretentious teaching style. Thank you again
