From last Friday to Sunday this guy was breaking into the patch and ate parts of all 4 plants. Mostly leaves but terminated some side vines on the 1843A, and terminated the main on the 2145 McMullen. Luckily I got him before he ate any flowers. Spent all day Sunday putting electric fencing around the patch and fixing holes in the chicken wire so this won't happen again. Going to have to let some new vines grow to replace the damage, but ultimately it shouldn't affect fruit size much, if at all.
