quickcluck Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I used a good old shower curtain!!! 80p from ikea for a clear one..... then I progressed to here............ www.tarpaflex.co.uk as they do clear ones in all sizes and they are very strong and hardy.

beapea Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 We bought extra-strong clear poly sheeting from Homebase (I think) and fixed it to battens the length of the Cube run. No need to peg it to the floor, easy to roll up and store, plenty of air movement through the run: guess it would work for an Eglu too. beapea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Our run is covered with clear corrugated plastic sheets that are sold in DIYs for between £6 an £15 depending on the length. We have a run converter and extension so we have one 3 metre sheet and a shorter 1.8 metre sheet held on with bungie cords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgieB Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 We got our clear tarpaulin from www.tarpaflex.co.uk too. Reasonably priced and arrived the next day! Perfect really as we use string through the eyelet holes to attach it to the run so stays on well and the hens can see out. Not that their in their run for very long (as they free range all day) but we didn't like the idea of them not getting much light while they're were in there, plus we can see them!
