4m x 3m Omlet pen, cube, new auto door still boxed and coop light

We all remember when OH "helped" me add the run extension

 

 

but actually it was a great idea!

 

I was going to get a rabbit run like Debs has for intros in the WIR but now they are home I am not sure whether to put Tia and Maria (LF silkies) in with my bantams or my big girls so I have built them a half way house in between the two cubes.

 

 

 

I used a cube run, two door panels, one cube roosting bar, one eglu roosting bar, some wood, spare cube ladder and LOTS of cable ties

 

It is covered with an off-cut of corrugated plastic with some weed membrane as a shade

 

I am dead chuffed with it.

 

I have a big door at the back for me and a small door at the front to allow Tia and Maria into their own mini free-range garden. They will come beak to beak with both the Alcohol and the foody girls and as time goes on I might get an idea of which group they will bunk up with

I am sure Tia and Maria will love it in there

[Valkyrie]

[Falkor]

I wish my creation took only 15 minutes.....I spent about half hour in the wood section at B&Q
