I am rebuilding my chicken tractor to use as a permanent home for our broiler meat birds. Up till now the chicken tractor has been a day home for the birds only. At night they are hauled back into the chicken coop for protection.
I put some reinforcing boards on the bottom of the chicken tractor and then put some heavy wire down there. This will stop predators from getting to our chickens at night through the bottom of the cage.
I plan to put on some handles and wheels as well, if needed to make moving the chicken tractor around easier.
I put some no smoke additive on the old Snapper riding lawn mower because it smokes badly and has poor compression. I am hoping this will extend the life on the machine until winter when I can fully rebuild it properly. For now I need a mower for our huge yard.
I mowed the edges of the roads since we have private roads and we own the property on both sides. I also mowed some pathways through the woods for my wife and I to walk through.
The mower is getting stronger and smoking less now. The no smoke additive is working I think.

Trolls keep editing my videos and then spamming my posts with their links in hopes of turning people against me and making money off my work.
I am out of voting juice and can do nothing about it.
Please do NOT follow their links so as to not give them credit for stealing my work for their gain.
Here is an example of Troy Reid's ebegging technigue
I'm out of voting power give me give me scam.
This is the kind of crap he has done for his whole life.
Do not gives this scum the time of day .
Why do you think he has so many detractors. Because he is a serial scammer and sleazy liar.
All we do is make videos of our daily lives on the homestead.
Our videos are FREE for your entertainment.
No humans are harmed in the making of our homestead videos.
If you do not like us - simply leave.
But harassing us like this is criminal.
you showed us the ground is sand. Nothing will stop any animal that wants to feast on your birds to dig under the board and munch out. Laziness is stopping you from protecting your chickens at night. All it takes is one predator and troy gets content for another "poor us" video. I'm saying I told you so before it happens. It has happened so many times you probably lost count.
Predators cannot get through the wire on the bottom. We have not lost a bird to predators here inside the cages on our new homestead.
These are NOT TROLLS but hard working elderly people that were SCAMMED, taken advantage of by a LYING, DECEPTIVE CONMAN on youtube. You GREEDY RAT BASTARD, work for your own money instead of DECEIVING ELDERLY pensioners. Youtube is not a 'license to steal' for a CRIMINAL FRAUD.
Roll Up, All the fun of the circus has been extended free, yes that’s free of charge for all Steem users that watch Trog’s Daily –blog- sorry filthy lies!

Anyone can see that for themselves.
Our videos are FREE for people to watch.
If you do not like us - simply leave.
But harassing us like this is criminal.
Telling lies like you do is criminal.
You make deceptive videos of fake destitution, E-beg for money and gifts. Gifts are sold for cash on craigslist. You are SCAMMER, CRIMINAL FRAUD. You use LIES and FAKE video to deceive others to donate. You are LYING CRIMINAL FRAUD.
T-fool said this not long ago. What he really meant was this:
We make FREE videos for entertainment.
Just videos of our daily lives.
You dont have to stay here if you dont like us.
Harassing us is criminal
feminine little wimp troy saying someone is an odd one is pure comedy gold.
Troy Reid, better know as TR, Trog, Leatherhead (because of his dirty stinking greasy old hat that he wears every place he goes even in the house) Turkey Head, Fruit Loops and more, is a full time ebegger, scammer and a fraud.
He has a band of dedicated goons on his YouTube channel that send him their money because he refuses to get a job.
His 100k subs on YouTube, I believe are mostly bought hence the reason for only 2 or 3 thousand views of his no content video.
I think what has amazed me the most since he has been on here is just how nasty he is, throwing random accusations at everyone because he can't delete their comment.
Trogs story of scanning and stupidity is a long one, he is the only YouTuber I know that has a superb dedicated sucks site, it is definitely the best place to gen up on his evil doings.
Come on over, everyone is friendly, it's not the place Reids suckers make it out to be.

Roll Up, all the fun of the circus has been extended free, yes that’s free of charge for all Steem users that watch Trog’s Daily Filthy Lies!
http://pakdailymotion.com/watch?v=PqfkQEcalEI
So true!
He is begging for food because he was too stupid to figure that it costs more money to feed more people....
Hmm, Melanie has no respect for her deadbeat husband who makes her and their child live in 3rd world conditions.
yet he swears here on steem that he does not beg and has never begged. Damn those old videos keep popping up and proving troy to be a bald face liar
@damcc that tiny head troy is funny as hell
I use adblock to support troy. Its the least I can do
so do i, i love adblock
Me too!
You are CRIMINAL FRAUD, SCAMMER and CONMAN. Exposing you is not harassment. You are doer of BAD deeds that you don't want known. You have much to hide, SCAM MAN. How about you STOP jacking elderly cat ladies for donations?
We make videos of our daily lives.
There is really no way to hide anything like that.
All the problems are in your own head.
If you do not like us - that is fine.
If you do not even believe us - that is fine.
But to stalk and harass us online and in the real world is criminal.
Some fuker give Poly some crackers!
Listen up Trog and watch, it aint going to stop, we shall not be moved!
Your invitation to be here!
You don't really make videos of your daily lives any more. That might account for your dramatic drop in views. Take today for example...you had the whole day off yesterday because you were afraid of the rain. Did you post a new video? Nope. We now know why you don't maintain a normal job. You would probably be fired for insubordination.
It could be that he was busy picking up junk around the Lewiston area before it is under a foot of snow. He has to keep up on the building of dumpstead #2
Actually I hunted in the rain, as I had said. And got wet. I said that other hunters did NOT hunt in the rain but I did.
Anyway, you would argue with anything I say no matter what.
You were in the house posting on StreemIt within an hour of day break. You weren't hunting very long and the point remains...no video for your 102,000 subscribers on YouTube today. Why?
2,000 subscribers max he has the rest he bought, he does not have the views to match the subscribers... and the rest are leaving in droves look at the content, and he sits on steem now
He got a boo boo on his finger and its to cold for him outside
Your timing is way off. But whatever...
Sorry. I was online at that hour and made a note of the time you were posting on SteemIt. Sunrise is at 7:38 AM...the time at which you can legally begin hunting in Michigan. You were posting online within an hour of that. But whatever...
Meh. Who says he's hunting on state land?
Shiftless Dad thinks you were watching him...what a joke.
He can't read the comments.
What????? You were on my land watching me???
I was on my own land all day yesterday.
What did my coat look like?
Why do you seem so surprised about a “troll” being on you land and watching you? According to the gospel of Troy, “trolls” are ALWAYS on your land, see idiot you really are a lying rat bastard.
Your canned reply is a lie. Your videos are FAKE DECEPTIONS of DESTITUTION to SCAM OTHERS for DONATIONS. Your videos are CRIMINAL FRAUD. Exposing a SCAMMER is not harassment. GO TO HELL E-BEGGER!!!
Boy, you are are full of hate and spit.
All we do is make videos of our daily lives on the homestead.
Our videos are FREE for your entertainment on YouTube.
Google pays our monthly pay check, as you already know.
No humans are harmed in the making of our free YouTube videos.
If you do not like us - simply leave.
But harassing us like this is criminal.
No humans are harmed?
What about the little boy you dragged out to your "special"
shack in the woods where your mail order child bride
couldn't see?
September 19, 2017 video 6:30 mark - "I was afraid he was going to fall on me because I was on the cot underneath." said by Troy in his video. Troy sleeping beneath the 14 year old boy??? REAL PEDO HERE and stuff, oh yeah??? Two months ago with wife 9 months prego right before baby birth. Troy REALLY HORNY in the woods tarp shack with a 14 year old boy.
@thediyworld. Please Define "no humans are harmed".
I believe you have created a long list of Victims from you so-called "entertainment".
As a matter of fact, some of those victims are here due to Your invitation to "have fun and help make YOU money".
You create victims.
I simply make free videos of our daily lives on the homestead
Every time you claim its harassment or criminal I'll down vote you. And of course when you lie.
Bambi will be safe today. What is the problem today? Cold, Hot, fog, snow, rain, humidity, monsoon, tornado, thunder storm, blizzard, hail, tsunami, hurricane, sleet, darkness, freezing rain, sunny, cloudy, windy, lightning, icy or are you permanently attached to the computer?
sand fleas. LMAO
Why would Reid need to have comments deleted or "greyed out"?
Much like his YouTube channel where people that question his words or actions get blocked and banned.
These former viewers that were invited here by Reid to "have fun and help him make money" only want the truth from him and to warn the new, unsuspecting steemit audience of his deceptions.
I will not have you copying my videos and posting my work for your own benefit and then spamming my blog with them.
No way!!!!
"I will not have you copying my videos and posting my work for your own benefit and then spamming my blog with them."
"No way!!!!"
@thediyworld, I believe you are accusing the wrong person here.
I do not have the capability, nor have I posted anything except comments to your contradictions.
Remove them from YouTube I dare ya, that will stop us from copying them.... untill you remove them we will use them as we please :P

Turd reids legacy....
A garbage dump in the woods...
No 'daily video'? "All we do is make videos of our daily lives on the homestead". You say that quite often. Another lie! What about your loyal 2000 Youtube subscribers?
@the-diy-world, I recall in his last "sit down, with notes" video, Reid said "don't expect much from me in the next two weeks"
lol, more like don't expect much since i got a boo boo on my finger, this might be it, he might apply for disability...
troy reid your a DUMBASS
@offgridproject, Anybody can wrap a Band-Aid around a finger.
But who whines about it for eternity (half of the video) and calls it quits for the day?
Where was the blood if it was so bad?
Pfft.
if he smashes his thumb with a hammer he will take off the rest of the year...
He is such a pansy, I've worked with guys that fell off buildings and went back to work
I don't think his subs expect too much anyway. Why break a habit? He's never given them much over the last five years.
Viewers -- ask yourself why there is a website with over 400 members dedicated to exposing Troy Reid of Lewiston, Michigan as the LIAR, SCAMMER, E-BEGGAR and CON MAN that he is! He loves to put on a sad face and whiny voice to appear destitute and get the elderly and infirmed to send him cash donations and gifts of tools and supplies to keep him afloat. He even said in the comments of one of his videos that he recommended that when looking for land to buy/rent for homesteading, you look for elderly people with land for sale because they're more likely to ignore the rules and laws. HE PREYS UPON THE ELDERLY. And don't get me started about his relationship with a convicted pedophile named David "TJ" Hansen (it's all there on his YT videos to see) and his playing with a teenaged boy. What 48-year-old man that you know has play time with teenaged boys??!?!?!
what year was this taken
wow looking nice.. :)
sh1980 Will you look at tha!
Pure free contaminated water, this is the jerk you are calling nice!
and he thinks he has enough brain cells to raise a kid???? We are needed to protect that kid and expose this idiot
I want to see the one where he washed his dishes in the same water, lol
Thank you :)

Hey Troy, I thought you used rechargeable LED lights in your house? Why is the ceiling light on, which clearly is drawing power from the grid?
Patreon video
http://pakdailymotion.com/watch?v=PqfkQEcalEI
95% off the grid allows for some exceptions I would think.
@thediyworld, I am not understanding how you came up with the figure of "95" percent, off grid.
Can you please explain how you calculated that with the number of items on grid, as opposed to now off grid, to determine that number.
Is your freezer, stove, oven, refrigerator, water pump, and those devices we see plugged into the wall charging next to your couch also exceptions?
All will soon be explained.
How to explain last 8 months of LIES that 600 watts of panels runs trailer and cabin plus freezer in garage. You are HUGE EFFIN LIAR!!! You are NOT OFF GRID at all. Your grandiose LIES are scientifically impossible. You lie to keep off grid project name. You are ONGRID in a vacation trailer property NOT HOMESTEAD.
And you, little troll, like to change facts to confuse people.
I have a side by side fridge and freezer which I ran all summer.
300 Watts.
If you do not like our videos - just leave.
If you do not believe us - just leave.
But harassing us like you do online and in the real world is criminal!!!
@martingardner, Notice how Reid avoided answering how he claims to be "95%" off grid?
I have a solar powered calculator.
Does that mean I'm 100% Off Grid?
I am totally off grid just like troy and my electric bill is only $300 a month- gotta have air conditioning
@thediyworld, why so long to "explain"?
An honest, credible person that claims to have "Nothing To Hide"
and be a "Do It Yourself " YT show should have had absolutely No Problem showing proof .....7 months ago.
But the shell game continues I suppose.
Soon?!? You said you were basically off the grid starting in June. Now the truth is starting to slip out. Why was it necessary to lie? Just tell the damn truth.

@mi49756, @offgridproject, I want to see Reid drag a deer with that awesome hardcore mini-bike.
Because that's why he bought it,
and with the money from the "Bring Melanie Home" fund raiser campaign.
post pictures of Troy killing under sized deer
Oh gee, this is funny!
Please go to this site for the complete backstory on this internet ebegging conman and be aware of the location of your wallet at all times.
The Do It Yourself World Scam .SUCKS
Bambi will be safe today. What is the problem today? Cold, Hot, fog, snow, rain, humidity, monsoon, tornado, thunder storm, blizzard, hail, tsunami, hurricane, sleet, darkness, freezing rain, sunny, cloudy, windy, lightning, icy or are you permanently attached to the computer?
Warming up. People do that sometimes. Oh, and people sometimes eat too.
No heat in the spank shed?
You dont hunt in a work shop in your yard.
@watertower has heaters in his deer blinds. He can stay out and hunt all day, if needed.
@watertower also takes food and drinks while hunting in the blinds.
With a ruuf, walls, carpeting, cozy chair, off grid lights, It makes for a more pleasurable day.
"Warming up." You are the one that tells us 40 degrees is short sleeve weather.
Real hunters go prepared and actually travel more than 50 yards from the 95% On Grid shack. Real hunters are out at daybreak not in the 95% On Grid shack hugging the propane heater. Are you still running everywhere ate a rate of 15 miles a day? The only place you run is from the On Grid shack to the spank shack when the anchor baby becomes annoying. Other than you there is not a person on this planet that does not feel bad for that kid.
Troy is waiting inside his house for a fawn to walk by so he can kill it like in NY killing under sized deer
Bambi....
Got another one today.
under weight a baby and less then 6 months old, yup that sound like you would do that again
Real men only shoot 10+ point bucks...
You were warming up at 8 AM already...just an hour into daylight. You're really not cut out for the hard things in life, are you? No wonder you don't have a job working for someone else that pays more than 50 cents an hour.
