I thought the same thing @greybeard

PSA - Just got an email from Tractor Supply that they are giving a 15% discount for Veteran's Day to to Former or Active Military and their family members - No limit to the discount and it's timely since I need 4 more rolls of wire and another 90 T-posts and just got a 10% coupon in the mail.

Often, the coupons have a disclaimer on them, something to the effect of:
"Not valid with any other promotion or discount".

IOW, it's probably one or the other--use the coupon's 10% discount or the Veterans' 15% discount but not both for a total of 25% off......

Just got that same Email Mike. Very timely, and I intend to use it as well as take advantage of a few restaurant freebies also.

 

[Mike CHS]

I wwasn't meaning to use both. I meant it was nice to get a 15% when I was planning on 10%.

@greybeard - I know you don't have sheep but I have a question for you. I'm thinking about running 3 lines of 5 strand electric to subdivide the 7 acre pasture I'm just about to finish. What would you recommend for minimum gauge wire and how far to space posts? These are all internal fences.

Teresa did take a picture of the impromptu egg nest and the mess the hen made. She didn't see her in action but opened the door just before she was done laying.

That's what I call "Special Delivery".....

 

[Baymule]

Ya gotta love a hen that brings the egg to you!

She'll probably want to keep laying there, might as well replant the aloe somewhere else.

For the third day in a row now the Egg Delivery Hen dropped an egg in the flower pot by the front door so she gets her wings clipped tonight.

We went to TSC and took advantage of the Veteran's Day Sale. We don't have that much acreage to fence in but we have the supplies to do what is left.

I'm going to spend some time and splice together all of the partial pieces of wire that we have by the shop. There is probably close to a whole roll there.
