So, first things first, what's up at our house right now. Well we planted the garden (will upload pics when everything comes up), and built the chicken coop (see last entry). But that was when we had 6 chickens and 2 ducks. Since then, the dogs got into the run and killed 4, we got 16 bantams on sale, we rescued a gosling, and I ordered 16 more layers from a hatchery. I ordered 16 instead of 4 because it was cheaper to get more. So I found a place to get free pallets and will be adding onto the coop and making a fence for a run with pallets.
We also adopted a puppy! We already had a shepherd mix, and we got a little miniature pinscher.
And last but not least, we have our trailer for our tiny house! Finally! Actually, it's a camper right now but it will be just a trailer when we get done with it. We decided to get a camper because it is on a 26' gooseneck trailer, and a trailer that size is REALLY expensive. But the camper was only $800 so we got a steal.
But that isn't even the best part. When we showed up to get the trailer, the couple that was selling it were building a tiny house in their backyard! In their city they can have a tiny house on a foundation not a trailer, and we got to go inside and check it out. It had two full floors and a real staircase. They do remodels for a living, so when we told them what we were doing they gave us a bunch of carpet, linoleum, and wood floor that were leftover from their remodels for free!! We have enough flooring to put tile in the bathroom, carpet in the bedroom, and wood floor everywhere else. They also told me about a place to get lumber for really cheap. I am so glad to have found someone near me that is also building a tiny house!
This is the trailer as it is right now (with the camper on it)
Now that we have the trailer I will be posting a LOT more because we will *FINALLY* be starting on our build! Yay!
Regards,
Mollie
