Solitary chicken - need advice

[Stu1977]

I've just moved my girls from their old wooden ark into their shiny new Eglu.

 

They seem to like their new accommodation, but their old wooden ark had a perch in it that they used to like to sit on and snooze on a sunny.

 

I'm considering putting a perch - a thick tree branch - in the Eglu... probably across the join between the two halves of the run.

 

Has anyone tried this? Has anyone any pics?

Yes and yes

Here you go . There's a largish log which just sits there, the branches just fit through the holes of the run and the shoe racks (Ikea ) fit through too and are tied on with old shoelaces.

We have a cube and gave the girls an IKEA shoe rack for their christmas present - we use it as a stand alone along the side rather than attaching it across like ANH has.

 

Welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the info. I'm going to look for a suitable fallen branch in the woods this weekend whilst walking my dogs... then maybe a trip to Ikea too!
