Egluntyne Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I got mine from a local builders merchants. B&Q, Homebase etc don't seem to have any on their websites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Garden centres and builders merchants should have them. Try your Yellow Pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Definitely try freecycle first! Got most of my run stuff free from freecycle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktdot Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Wickes. They do a cheap plain one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen&Lee Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Check out your local papers classified section too - people in ours are often either giving them away or selling for £1 a slab. Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkleeeeee Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 shame you dont live near me we always have loads. i use them in my run and it is so easy to clean the hemcore up, i just brush it into trugs and jet wash the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 what have you all put on the floor of you home made runs, under the hemcore or bark, i plan to use paving slabs but cant find any anywhere. does anyone know of any websites? Don't know where you are in London Sam, but just off the A41 near Watford there is a yard (I think it's calls Winfields??) that sells ex council paving slabs - I could always pop in and find out how much they are if you are near enough? They delivered them to me - we used them to put our new oil tank on a few years ago. I am sure there must be other places that sell them too.

The Dogmother Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Brilliant idea Rozanne - I know the place you mean too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Clare - I can't believe how many people have chickens called Roxanne!! I'm getting a real complex here!! Winfields is really good and quite reasonable considering the cost of living in this area!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
