Bad storms, MY CHICKEN COOP FLIPPED UPSIDE DOWN!!!!! Happy Ending!!!

[caspernc]

I REALLY enjoyed the pictures. The chickens should be stressed! Their world blew upside down, literaly. I can't spell so do the phonic thing. I like your website. Very nice. Did you looses nest boxes? Or are they where the coop used to be. All will be well. I wish I could help more. Sending prayers to you.

This group, they refuse to use a nest box. I had nest boxes in there but I had gotten them off My Pet Chicken, and honestly, they are really small and cheaply made. My girls looked at them, and then looked at me like I was insane. I tried putting a crate in there, the bottom half of pet carriers, you name it, and where did my girls lay over and over? In a corner of the coop, in a hole they dug into the floor. I gave up trying to get them to do what I wanted them to do. But if I'd had nest boxes in there, they would have been kindling after those winds!

Thanks about the website. It's a work in progress always, lol. I spent several hours trying to update it the other day and the site went down and didn't save anything I was working on, I was so frustrated, so I gave up for that night, and just haven't gotten around to finishing yet. There are more updates to be made, but with this crazy weather, I figured I had better just wait! And thank you for the prayers.

here is the email i received tonight. i will need to get the information needed. to get them intouch with you. please PM you address, phone number, and what materials they need to bring. they said the would bring fencing and t posts, etc. i told them i would take care of the cost and he said he had it taken care of. so you need to decide how you want the pen set up so they can bring the materials.

i will need to get in touch with them first thing in the morning.

Robin,

We'll get this.

Just determine what I need to take for repairs and that these gals still need help.

Need directions, name, etc.

Could this be Tab, IN?

If our cattle don't pick tomorrow to change pastures, will plan on being there between
930 - 1000. Guessing it is 1 - 1 1/2 hour from here.
