A fine mess I've gotten myself into now, Ollie

[LizStreithorst]

I have incoming day old chicks on Thursday.  I haven't done a thing to get ready for chickens, but have time since they're just baby chicks.  I had planned to keep them in the fish room at first in one of my huge fish raising containers.  It's always warm down there...But here I am with a huge fish raising container full of 200 baby Angels AND  A huge water storage container in the middle of the fish room. 

I am the queen of the work-around.  I have a couple of choices.  I'm just going to have to sleep on it and come up with the best choice tomorrow.

We just got some banty chicks on Sunday. Like we needed more. Lost one already. They are cheeping in the dining room.

Mine will be cheeping in the living room.  I'm bringing home a huge dog kennel to put them in for now.  I'll get my water storage container's frame reinforced when I get home from work today.  Mr. Sharp will come Thursday and put everything back in place.

Now I just need to build a chicken coop before the little chickies get too big for the temporary containers.

When I'm up against it I can find the best way.  I have found a free chicken house!  It's 10X12.  It's basically sound but needs a huge amount of TLC.  It needs a new tin roof and the rotting wafer board on the outside has to be replaced.  It belonged to the other worthless grandson of Jack and Judy (not the drug addicted one)  the grandson and his wife trashed the house so badly that Jack and Judy are tearing it down stick by stick and saving the lumber.  They were going to push the little building in a pile with other worthless stuff and burn it.  They say that I can have it.  Not only that, since I don't have a clue about how to move a building Jack said that he and his brother and perhaps his son-in-law will move it and put it in place for me.  I don't know what I have done to deserve such kind caring neighbors.

I know....
You are a kind and caring neighbor yourself...that's what you've done!
