Egluntyne Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 (edited) This crops up from time to time. There was a whole thread about it a while ago. I'll see if I can find it. The consensus was that they are totally unsuitable for use as a chicken house. Edited December 30, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 i dont like the idea im afraid. Looks like it would be cold in winter, very hot in summer (like a sardine tin!) and not much ventilation and not very inviting for chooks who are used to a certain "luxury"!!!

xChicken04x Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Yes, it was me It seemed like a good idea to me A forum member (won't name names though) private messaged me saying that her friend has one of these with a cat flap attached as a chook house and it works very well. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
