We're all planning walk in runs! PART 2!

Recommended Posts

Not jealous of everyones WIR's at all :liar:

:lol:

 

Still don't have ours sorted what with fathers bad back.

 

Is there any chance you could save up for a 'Tony' run?

 

Maybe you could explain to family that you are saving up for a run and they could give you some money for Christmas.

 

My Dad just asks now what the latest chicken thing we want is and then he contributes towards it.

 

:oops:

The original plan was to get a Tony run, but I have to pay for all the animals stuff and thought we could make one for cheaper, I'm learning to drive so it'd be a WIR or a car :lol:

 

It would be a lot easier to get a Tony run and I have a big birthday near Christmas so can ask for money :)

 

Grandad used to be a carpenter/modelmaker which is always handy :wink: so we've planned it all out, but it all stopped when Dad slipped 3 disks. There's just a 'disagreement' as to which side of the garden its going because Dad likes 'his garden'.

It could be a mini chicken coop-er.

 

:lol:

 

Boom! Boom!

 

I've got the day off today. As soon as I'm dressed I'm going to go up the garden and measure the potential chicken-place AGAIN very carefully. And then I'm going to email Tony with my order ...

 

I think a WIR would be an ideal Big Birthday present Lewis, personally I always find young men quite difficult to buy presents for, there are only so many cuff-links and tankards you can use after all!

What an excuse to buy a purple eglu.

 

8)

 

Well the (cube purple) is going to go, eventually, and that will near enough pay for the run. I have loved the Cube but it is not as funky as the Eglu. I decided that the size of the run and my other commitments mean I'm really not likely to have more than 5 chickens at any time, and on that basis I may as well go back to an Eglu which will be inside the run, and they can all squeeze in and snuggle up together.

 

ANH, I have asked for a stable-type door, thanks for that brilliant idea of yours! It won't be quite the same as yours, but it means I can open the top half and chuck treats in etc without letting them all out. If I work it right, I should be able to fill up the Glub and Grub this way too, I hope - it may mean hanging them up high, and giving the girls something to perch on while they feed.

 

Just paid my deposit. Now I need to ring Omlet to find out how much an Eglu on its own costs!

An Eglu on it's own, no run, no feeders, is £235. That's what I paid last month when I added a second Eglu to my WIR.

I collected mine in person, so no additional delivery charge, otherwise it would have been about £20 extra I think.
