What happens here

The presenter moves on to showcase the chicken coops and the main garden. He mentions that an older mobile chicken coop has been retired, and a newer, functional mobile coop is now in use, housing baby chicks that will eventually be consumed. He then introduces the 'Jurassic Park Garden,' pointing out tall Goliath sunflowers and gourds. He highlights the success of mulching the garden in the spring, which is part of a gardening series on his channel. The garden also features a non-electric deer fence system. He describes this system as having two fence posts spaced 36 inches apart, with wires at 18, 36, and 54 inches high on the inner post, and a single wire at 18 inches on the outer post. This creates a three-dimensional visual barrier that deters deer without needing electricity. He mentions the presence of an ultrasonic animal repeller near the garden, which emits a high-pitched noise to scare away pests.

Goal: Showcase animal housing, gardening efforts, and a deer prevention system
