Peacocks

[Plum]

Well no I'm not quite that brave....... but Em got me thinking about a side door to the run.

 

So I moved the side panel to the end and the end panel to the side. I put the extension on properly, it was overlapped by 1/2 before. I had to fill in some gaps with the skirt, but as I am on slabs I reckon they probably weren't needed.

 

Now what shall I do with the extra space I've got?

[Egluntyne]

Bung a couple of extra chickens in it.

[Plum]

Hadn't thought of that

 

It's a bit of a hotchpotch but I hope to get a spare door panel soon so will change it and things will be a bit tidier.

 

 

It still drops down so I can get in and out

OH says its a mess

[Cooks]

dont listen to OH I like it.. yes more space calls for more chooks, isn't that a law or something??

[Falkor]

- Doing a Palmer07 today could be throwing your coffee all over yourself and your colleague

 

But very happy to see your "Doing a Palmer07" is of benefit to you and the chooks (rather than costly to you as I will be paying both dry dry cleaning bills )

 

Looks good and I agree with Lynsey - ignore OH

 

and yes...more space for more chooks - I have also devised introduction pens using an extra door panel - I will post pics of that later

 

Loving the Ikea stool too!

Well done Plum, thats cool

 

Your OH is just jealous that he didnt get to play with any cutters/pliers/anglegrinders during the conversion

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I think it looks fab .

 

Ignore OH, I bet he'd have made a mess of it anyway .

[Plum]

Well done Plum, thats cool

 

Your OH is just jealous that he didnt get to play with any cutters/pliers/anglegrinders during the conversion

 

No cutters used, I can put it back tomorrow to it's original form. It's like playing with meccano now if I found the boys old set (if they haven't used it all up in the computer) and ...........................

 

OH is fine, he's just telling the truth.

[Olly]

I don't think it looks a mess at all, I'm very impressed - a much better use of the space you have available. I'm sure Cookie Monster is right, there's a law that says more space must be filled with chickens.

[chick wiggle]

That looks great Plum, clever you Cant wait to see the photos of the new chickens

[Space Chick]

Well done Plum

[Plum]

Thankyou

 

So which chickens mix well with my Omlet girls? Thinking pure breeds so they are less likely to have egg problems like my little Sparrow . Would bantams mix ok? If not what chickens are same sort of size, don't want to go any bigger because only have run and extention.

 

I'm off on hols tomorrow so could be posting a thread in chickens when I get back
