I really like this idea for upcycling, but I worry it wouldn't keep my girls warm enough over the winter. Has anyone used one through a cold winter?I posted awhile back about repurposing a couple of kids playhouses into chicken coops and someone asked for pics when we were done..........well the coop is done but we are still working on the permanent run........we have a temporary that we let the girls out in only when someone is in the backyard as it isn't very predator safe. I am so glad to have them off the sun porch!
Thanks for the welcome.........haven't said much but definitely have been readingYou utilized a town house duplex. Very nice. Mine, well not as pretty as yours, is a stand alone 2 story. I elevated it with a 3 foot plywood base.
I like to repurpose things.
Almost forgot..... You have been here since January, but
No. I haven't heard much. These day old chicks go for $25-35 ea when purchased straight from the breeder. (Then there's the shipping....) I thought selling them for 1/2 would make them go fast., but I guess I'll be putting an ad in Craigslist. I sold many last year that way. This time, I paid $6 per egg. Many people want $3 chicks like at the feed stores. I sell my "mutts" for $3 & even those are better quality than the poor little traumatized chicks at the feed store.@Faraday40 I had passed your info to a gentleman looking for some juvenile Orpingtons. Did he ever email you?
I'm from Northern IL, by Rockford. I just started my first flock
Anybody else near me?
