Okay, just called them. The bins range from $113 - $140. It's about $.15 per pound. The $113 bin is about 600 pounds, roughly 40-50 pumpkins. I'm definitely thinking about getting one now. Now how do you store pumpkins for winter?

Somewhere cool, with good air circulation. Like shelves in the garage or a cool basement.

Hrm. I could definitely split that with you. I have room to store probably 20 pumpkins in the garage.

I will let you know when we go pick it up. They are only 12 miles from our house and they are open until 6pm. Might be tonight.

We will be around all day tomorrow and could definitely meet you in town with our truck to get some.

Hello from caroline county. I'm looking for 2 or 3 good young bantam layers. Not sure what to get or where to get them.

You can look around for local sellers.Some advertise online if you google them.You can check ads and try the buy/sell/trade section on BYC.I hope I helped

I just found a source for free organic produce scraps including bins of pumpkins throughout the fall and early winter.

So happy for free chicken food!

I am in Caroline County as well (don't have any bantams just large fowl), but I would shy away from the auctions. I would usually suggest craigslist for our area, but being the time of year the ads have dwindled and many of the hens have stopped laying for now.

I have a lot of Splash Cochin bantam pairs to sell. I will be bringing them to the MD show in Frederick Nov. 2nd. Anyone interested?
