I'M A DO-IT-YOURSELFER, BUT I REALLY WANTED THIS TO BE RIGHT(NEIGHBORS, ARE NOT HAPPY). DOES ANYONE HAVE A DRAWING(PLAN) THAT IS DETAILED THAT I COULD LOOK AT?

wlee,
Have you considered asking any of your family or friends in your area if they would like to have some chicks and split an order with you? Also, local feed stores often will order chicks in spring and allow you to buy fewer than the 25 that are required by hatcheries. Good luck and I hope you get your flock started soon!

There are other hatcheries that let you order for less than 25 chicks. Ideal poultry will let you order as long as the order totals to 20.00 There is also meyer hatchery where you can order 3, you do have an extra charge for the special heating pad they supply(20.00).
