CatsCube Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 (edited) Started this weekend, have only had the afternoons to work on it, but we have the basic frame up now, still need to add mesh, door, roof and guttering.

chelsea Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 coming along nicely. The wood looks really sturdy and good. Hubby has put ours up today, just the roof to put on. And me to do the finishing touches (like clear up all the mess! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessa the Duchess Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I think it looks absolutely fab I especially love the perches and water feature and the straw bale is very cool You deserve more chickens for all your hard work Could I ask you approx how much all the materials cost? I can't wait to get my new run, but DH refuses to work out in the cold and rain Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsCube Posted January 20, 2008 Author Share Posted January 20, 2008 About £250 aat this stage, thats £110ish for wood £90 for roof and fittings, and £40 mesh then a sack of hemcore and straw bale. The water featuer and bamboo were already there and we nicked the branches from a nearby wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
