*mummy_hen* Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Hi All, So excited....we will be collecting our 4 ex-batt girls in 9 days time (and counting). We have been working away hard for the last week or so to get their new home ready for them and it is finally done...am so pleased with it, so hope they are too. Here is a pic, what do you think? http://www.photobox.co.uk/album/47292151 The only thing missing in the photograph, is the pink gingham curtains i have had made for them - put them on this morning so will have to update the pic!! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WitchHazel Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Lovely job. Especially like the way your garden chair matches the grub & glugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*mummy_hen* Posted May 13, 2008 Author Share Posted May 13, 2008 Thanks mrsm_jones I did some research on the internet of the sort of thing i liked and my wonderfully clever other half made it for me!! Then when it was finished i painted it and added all the accessories so was a bit of a team effort! Our neighbours keep asking who is moving into the new house that's appeared next door, Hehe!

daj198 Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Wow! Great hen house. It's like a mansion, but those ex-batts deserve it Also, did your OH by any chance use a shed kit and cut parts out of it? If so, that's a great idea.... looks especially good when painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
