I've been truely blessed....

Recommended Posts

....by a lovely couple who replied to my wanted ad on freecycle for a greenhouse. They have given me a 6x8' aluminium greenhouse with most of the glass still intact. I'm so :D as we have been looking at second hand one's locally on eBay and even they still go up to a price we could no way afford at the moment.

 

We are going to convert it into a walk in run as our home made run is not quite high enough for me to stand up straight, so it plays havoc with my back. I am going to put the glass back onto the roof and back of the greenhouse and mesh the rest with recycled wire from the old run.

 

I really can't wait for it to be all finished as poo picking has been a real struggle when you can't actually stretch your back up now and again :shock:

 

Will post pics when its all done :D

You might want to paint some shader on the roof as it will get hot under glass in the summer.

 

Yes, I was planning on doing that as I don't want fried chickens when I get home :shock: . We're also putting it right into the corner of our garden so it will be sheltered on 2 sides by fencing and we have a large conifer that will also give it some shade during the hottest time's of the day, so that will help a bit.

 

If it still gets to hot then I have some gazebo curtains that I could attach to the roof for extra protection :)
