Falkor Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Wow, looks great!!! But have I read that wrong: (extra 11580 x 1900) - I make that 11.58m x 1.9m or have I got my decimal point in the wrong place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 That is really good looking What is the size in English. Have you already got the house or ordered the house and extension. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnyish Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 ordered the house and the extension... the extension roof is not covered over, but i have clear corrigated plastic on my current set up which i will attach, so will be covered from the rain but still nice and light for them as for the size... lol i dunno will see when it turns up, think the house section is 8 ft x 6ft x 6'5 ft the run is sameish again by the looks of it.

Bunnyish Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 Wanted to turf in inside of their new run, tried slabs didn't work for me, live on very steep hill with sloping garden so they just got flooded so instead wanted give them bit of green, now I know it will take them all of 30 secs to trash turf, so is it possible to lay sonething like chicken wire etc over the turf so the grass grows trough it, gives grass chance to root n not b completely ripped to shreds??

I have read on another forum that someone has used 1" green pastic coated wire over their grass to protect the root systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
