Ok, this is a plea for help for my coop lol. No guilt trip or anything, either you can and want to help or you don't and that's ok with me. I just figured I might as well use all the resources at my fingertips to solve this problem.
I was offered a coop, rabbit hutch, and breeding pen for free from a reply on an ad on craigslist for free or cheap supplies. He has a granddaughter that is autistic like my daughter. She's joining 4H and we figured she'd need the bunny house too, as she wants one of those as well. The gentleman mentioned possibly helping me bring it to my house, but with his moving, working, and having to get his horses moved and set up; he just didn't have time.
I don't have a truck. I have a 1991 Toyota 4Runner that gets crappy gas mileage but runs pretty great and keeps me safe in the winter. I would like to rent a truck at uhaul or pay for someone's gas and time with their truck or trailer, to help me bring these items home. The gentleman lives out in Kuna off Kuna-Mora Rd and Cloverdale. I live off Fairview near Curtis in Boise.
I need 1-3 bodies to help lift and load/unload the coop. It's a bit heavy but not impossible at all. I could lift up one end on my own, but it was a bit heavy and I'm fairly strong. The coop is old, but it's structure is sound. I want to get it home, sand it, and paint it so my chicks can come home from my friends house. Long story why they are there, posted in the Diseases forum.
Anyway, if you have some time this week to help move my coop I'd gladly pay you for your time and truck or I'll rent a truck and treat you to lunch so we can talk chickens and anything else that strikes our fancy.
So, in closing, if you have some time and are willing to lift up a chicken coop and help me put it in a truck bed this week, shoot me a PM and I'll give you my contact info! Thanks!!!!
Love my chicken peeps!
