Michigan Chickenstock 2012 Buy/Sell/Trade

nitefyre, I can put you on the list. Don't worry, if there isn't enough space RaZ has offered to build some too.

Hillbilly Hen...would it be possible to get just one level made? I have a brooder set up right now for a couple Isa Browns that are about a month old, and now that I know about Chickenstock I would love to get a few more different breeds but nowhere to put them! And running out of space in the coop/shed so would rather have a smaller version if possible ;^)

My carpenter said he could do a one level brooder box but it would be $30.

How much time does he need to be fair to make a one level brooder? I may be able to move the babies I have now into the coop and use my current brooder for the new babies I get that weekend, and if so I wouldn't need a separate one. But...I don't want to be unfair and not give him enough time to make it either. Can you give me a deadline to let you know for sure so I'm not rushing him into anything? Thanks!

hockeygirl, if you could let us know for sure by June 1st that would be great.

Will anybody have any Russian Orloffs or does anyone know where I can get a couple of baby chicks. I have a friend who would like 2-3 but does not have a set up to incubate eggs.

I'm in a rebuilding year for my bees this year so I won't have backyard honey. But if anyone one wants honey, I can get it from my buddy who has a bee farm in Hartland.

I'll just need to know before hand who would want some. I can have as much as you want in 1 and 2 pound squeeze bottles.

I do have nine 2 pound bottles and two 1 pound bottles of last year honey. It is a bit cloudy because it got chilled, but honey doesn't go bad. It's still good. A minute in the microwave will clarify it.

Hillbilly Hen...Ok, I have just a couple more questions about the brooder box. Are there 2 doors bc there is a divider making 2 separate sections on each level? And do you know about how deep it measures? If it fits where I'm thinking, I think I might go with the full 2 level like the picture...even though my husband might kill me...he says I'm filling up my coop/shed too fast.

Also, for the raffle I can bring some homemade jams if that works.

hockeygirl, there is not a divider between the two doors. It just makes it easier to have to only open one side if there are chicks in there. Don't want them jumping out

The inside is about 18 inches deep but then if you figure the doors DH said about 20 inches on the outside. I will see if I can find another pic for you.
