🔥 Don’t Let Your Mower Go Up in Smoke! 🔥

Lawnmowers are notorious for collecting dry grass clippings in every nook and cranny — especially around moving parts that generate heat. Over time, this buildup becomes a serious fire hazard.

🚫 Dry grass + friction = danger.

Even a small amount trapped near a pulley, belt, or spindle can ignite due to friction heat — or at the very least, cause expensive damage.

💸 A replacement spindle or pulley can cost hundreds. A new deck? Even more.

✅ Quick tip: Use a leaf blower after every mow.

Blowing off loose debris only takes a minute, but it could save your mower, your property — or even your life.

🧼 Make it a habit: Give your mower a thorough cleaning after each use. Your equipment will last longer, run cooler, and stay safer.

A dirty Carburetor is all it takes to bring your mowing to a halt. Non-Ethanol Fuel and an annual Air Filter change can save you from costly repairs and lost time.

If your Mower is weak, surging, or wont run most often this is the reason.

Call for assistance or to schedule maintenance!

🐔 CHICKEN SCRATCH PATCH INSTALLATION – $75/hr 🐔
Turn a spot in your yard into a natural playground for your chickens!

Call or Text 817-723-9256

Do your birds love to dig, roll, and hunt for bugs? Let me till a 9x9 foot patch of your yard into a fresh foraging and dust bathing zone! It’s an easy, one-time upgrade that gives your flock something new to love—and helps you manage unused yard space.

✔️ Great for flocks of 5–15 chickens
✔️ Encourages natural behaviors (scratching, pecking, rolling)
✔️ Helps prevent boredom and pecking issues
✔️ Can reduce bugs and weeds
✔️ Easy to reseed later for regrowth or rotation
✔️ Optional add-ons: dust bath mix, fencing, seeding

⏳ Most jobs take 1 hour ($75)

☀️ Sunny Areas
Best for: Dust bathing, foraging patches, warmth in cooler months
Benefits:

Encourages dry, fluffy soil—perfect for dust baths

Helps dry out droppings, reducing smell and flies

Boosts growth of sun-loving forage plants (like clover or alfalfa)

Warmer in early spring or fall = happy chickens

Tips: Consider adding sand or ash to keep it loose and dry. Ideal for winter enrichment.

🌳 Shaded Areas
Best for: Cool spots for summer, bug hunting, shelter
Benefits:

Keeps chickens cool in hot weather

Naturally attracts insects = great foraging

Slows evaporation—can support softer ground or natural mulch

Less sun = fewer dust baths, but more bug action

Tips: Great under trees or beside buildings. Could benefit from leaf mulch or soft bedding.

💧 Damp/Moist Areas
Best for: Natural bug zones, composting areas, soil improvement
Benefits:

Chickens love hunting in damp soil for worms and grubs

Can be turned into a compost scratch zone with food or yard scraps

Helps break down organic material quickly

Useful for managing chicken manure naturally

Tips: Best with supervision—too much moisture = mud or odor. Keep rotated or dry out with mulch/straw.

🌵 Dry/Hard Areas
Best for: Dust bathing zones, erosion-prone patches
Benefits:

Long-lasting dust bath spot

Less mud or mess during wet seasons

Can be broken up and amended for future garden beds

Tips: Mix in compost, wood ash, or sand to soften the soil. Chickens will work it over time!
