Baggins Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Any ideas where I can get a straw bale from? ... and does anyone have any photos of their chicken ladders that I could copy, please? I have some time this weekend and would love to make the coop a bit more comfortable and appealing. I LOVE my chickens! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hi Baggins I have just done a google search for horse supplies near reading and a couple have come up. Try this link and give them a call. Located in Burghfield and Arborfield All the best HORSE SUPPLIES Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggins Posted January 26, 2007 Author Share Posted January 26, 2007 Thanks for that - didn't even think to look at "horse supplies" for a straw bale. Dur Going to collect one in the morning ... now just need to know how to make a ladder ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 We used a spare piece of 6" x 1" timber and nailed battens on to it, about 4" apart. http://club.omlet.co.uk/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=4868 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 We did something similar.To be honest they flutter down in the morning anyhow I think there may be some photos showing the ladder in my gallery - click on the "see my hens here" link below.
