Critter Sitters

[desertgirl]

I was just thinking...

We should set up a partnership with other BYCers to help care for our flocks when we go out of town. We could PM each other based on location, and then help each other out (I would take care of your chickens, you could help me with mine).

I probably wouldn't suggest this with most things, but we all seem to be genuinely concered about the well being of chickens, so I think this could be a valuable resource.

Thoughts?

It would be great. Beats picking someone off Craigslist that seems decent.

Oh that would be great, I love that idea!

I wonder how we should organize it...

I guess I could just PM the people in my town? Is there any way to search the site by location??

I wholeheartedly agree. I'm already looking for a flocksitter so I can still go on the rare vacation.
