Due to the wonderful community and inspiration I have had through being a member of the most fabulous BYC, I have decided (well trying) to start my own little bespoke chicken ark business, have done the marketing (but not released it yet), have made a "demo" ark, another in the making, and I hope soooo much it all takes off. Have even started to sell my eggs to the public (have never done that before) I am calling my business Domlyns Bespoke Chicken Arks..... I will post pics for the forum when the first is finally finished and "dressed" have been so excitied these past weeks, and FRIENDS IT IS ALL DOWN TO YOU ALL!! So from me to all of you THANK YOU for everything........but watch this space. My arks are designed by a woman with women chicken keepers in mind.....pretty, functional, a garden feature in themselves, with the welfare of chickens in mind.......xxxxx
Rains a lot here, too. My DH has to cross a river to get to the back of our property for hunting. Hates to see it rain. He can't cross of the 4 wheeler if the river gets deep and then it's a pain.
Awesome! Best wishes to you and your venture! Custom arcs that blend well and are woman friendly? Wonderful idea. Keep us posted and Congratulations!!!
And it's funny how many things just aren't designed with women in mind. Too big for female hands, or too heavy to lift easily. I have a little broody coop that my husband built for the girls. The lid is hinged. But it's heavy! The husband is like - That's not heavy. Uh, yes, it is. I'm a good bit smaller than he is, and lack the big manly muscles. (Thankfully
)
So, I think your idea is a great one. I wish you all the luck in the world with your new venture.
