Most of the time it’s the versatile and extremely handy speed square. But today, it’s the perfect tool for twisting in this lag hook. 😂

All of the chickens 🐓 are in the new coop. One went willingly. I had to catch each of the rest. Wish I had video of that. Hopefully, tomorrow will be much easier. Fun times on the farm.
