Hello All

DH is complaining, sharing his opinion ;0 saying surely the roosting bars should last longer than this? Write to then he says, its disgraceful!!! Obviously not fit for purpose!!! Hmmmmm

One of them has a crack in it, we bought our cube in March & i seem to remember the hairline crack was there then but wood being wood i didn't pay too much attention as i was just sooooooo excited!!

 

Please how long should they last & what is the warranty guarantee when we purchase our cube etc

 

Many Thanks

The simplest solution is to squeeze a little woodworkers PVA glue or even 'no more nails' into the crack.This will seal it up forever and is completely harmless to chooks.

 

The problem with wood is that its a natural product and flaws inside it often dont get picked up at the factory when its being machined.Also,wood expands & contracts due to temperature which again dont help any flaws.

My 2 sets of wooden roosting bars are a bit wobbly and always have been. I am counting pennies to buy the new plastic roosting bars but I must not tell hubbie that...
