LH I am so sorry, but glad that you are okay! Though the wonderful husband story is to die for

Kathy, thank you for the advice. DO I HAVE SHADE? I have no sun! Tall trees in Georgia!

Alright, I think I have my budget worked out...

$900 on shed
$140 on incubator + auto turner
around $90-$100 on chicks themselves.

That adds up to $1,230 or $1240. I might have to put the incubator on hold, though.

LH, thank heaven you and Sarah are OK! Ice is SO tricky! Hugs to both of you, and you be careful going back out there!

Nick....get the incubator and hatch your own chicks!

BTW - I'm with Beth on the plastic coop. Very cute, but the sun will tear it apart in no time at all...

Yep, I would but McMurray's chicks are cheap and I can get my chicks-pre vaccinated, and hatching eggs are expensive... And I wouodnt know heat to do with the Roos, etc. That stuff will come later on! And re to the shed comment, but what if my yard gets practically no sun?​

Cyn, I just created a photobucket. Is there any way I can upload individual pictures without making an album?

I would go with wood over plastic. Not only is wood sturdier, it will hold its value better and is easier to modify. My local Home Depot sells a very plain little 8x8 wooden shed for $499. Pretty sure it "requires assembly". You may be able to pay additional to have it "installed".

Yeah, but the wood sheds that are the size I want are all a thousand bucks or more, and I'm not willing to pay over 900. I want a very large shed, minimum 10x7.
