help building chicken shelter

Posted by dj griffith on October 21, 2012 at 10:33am

Hi all. Don't know how to ask...I need help building a shelter or roof over my chicken enclosure. I have arthritis and a back injury so am having difficulty building a frame for a henhouse or drilling into the block wall to attach a cover. I need a volunteer group aka "barnraising" situation, or a kindly helper or 2. I am a good cook,can do laundry, taxes, babysitting... any barters? Ideas?

    Hi DJ, 

    I was made aware of your posting a while ago but have been so busy with VPA events that I am just now able to address your posting.  Are you still in need of assistance.  Please email me at kat@vpaaz.org to let me know.

    Thanks!

      I tried to send you an e-mail...not sure if it went through.

    I have sent you my friend's email address; hope you can jive up with him and get the help you need.

    I am not particularly handy in that way, but I will ask around.

      I have a friend who is willing to help, but he lives in Chandler, as do I, and you are pretty far away. What is your ideal timeline? Soon I imagine...

    Where are you located, DJ?

    • dj griffith > Sheri Schmeckpeper October 21, 2012 at 10:43am

      Peoria...108th lane and Butler, which is south of Olive and north of Northern.

      Oh, doesn't that figure? We're about as far to the east as you are to the west! :) We're in east Gilbert. But I'll bet there are people who can help you who are closer to you.
