Has anyone converted the mesh under the back of the cube into a door yet?

 

I've been thinking about having a go for a while.... but im sure some clever henthusiast has already tried????

Sorry, why do you want to do it?

... So that you can split the run, or add extra feed stations.

we have pecking issues and food issues, I'd like to be able to get food at both ends of the run

I was going to do a back door under the cube as my chicken freeranging door but my WIR didn`t end up the way we initially planned.

 

I had planned on cutting the back panel and using the eglu run door hinged with run clips and and velcro ties.

 

Let us have pics if you do it!

Sounds like a good idea. It's screwed to the frame though I think, so I suppose it would mean cutting the weldmesh which may weaken it.

 

Why not divide the run lengthways to seperate them, then you could do a side conversion if you have an extension. Lauramurph has done that but guess you would need two run extensions to do that.
