I did use Cinder blocks to elevate my coop. Two in each corner, two more in the front and the back, and a few in the middle for extra support. That sucker isn't moving anytime soon. I would ask the people who are selling it what they recommend. My ground is fairly level, but you may have trouble is yours is not. $150 is a great deal! Mine was $375 delivered and needed a new roof badly. For reference, my shed is 10X12 also. As far as the lifting goes, you can just use a car jack, that's what the shed guys told me and it worked well. Just don't attempt it alone!
It felt pretty good this morning. Time will tell! If not, I'll just have to wait until spring.
Thanks! I still have boxes to unpack, but I figure that can wait until it's too cold to do outside work.
Thanks for the reminder. I don't know how I would treat all my bird for lice, since I usually use the powder. Is there an easier way when you have a good number of birds?
Eek! That's a shame.
There are several threads on BTC about using Ivermectin pourable for lice and mites. I've heard it does not work well for deworming (its main use with larger animals it is made to treat), so I use Valbazen for that that also. I have both, if you want to make the trip to my place to get some. I got my Ivermectin at TSC, but Jeffers has both. I'm sure you can find it on Amazon or eBay also.
Do you have orders in for BLRW at Privett hatchery and others from Sandhill? Should be a nice varied flock!
