Eggie232 Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I'm thinking of adding an additional 1m run to my Cube to make a 5m run for my lovely ladies Just wondering if anyone else has done this and if it's affected the manoeuvrability of the cube around the garden? I'd be really interested to hear your thoughts, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 You'll need to speak to Em (Falkor) She has a huuuge cube train, not sure it'd be easy to move though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 You'll have to put some signs in to show them the way home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alet_chicken Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Hi, my Cube run is 5m long, and I've only ever moved it once, when we moved house ourselves. I would be interested to hear how/whether you manage to move your 4m run around? Once I added the second extension, I decided that I wasn't going to move the run around anymore, it was just too heavy and unwieldy.... The Cube and first run length used to be separate from the others (but attached with velcro straps) so that I could reverse it out of the way for access on cleaning days, but since I invested in the new front panel with the larger door, I don't need this feature any more. Ps. Couldn't resist the temptation of including a picture. (Spot Ethel the naughty leghorn!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggie232 Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Thanks for all your advice! I went ahead and added the extra run section and moving it is fine! It requires two people, one at the rear pushing the cube and one inside the run supporting it. I think the key is that we have reinforced the joins with extra clips and cable ties. I'm really pleased that it's worked as it means my ladies will have ample space to roam safely during the day whilst I'm at work. When I return home they have a paddock to free range in with supervision! The 5m run also looks surprisingly good (a bit like a strange canal boat but otherwise quite smart!)

chuckmum6 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 My cube is a 5 m one and very hard to move, but a great space when they aren't out and about! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggie232 Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 Thanks alet_chicken and chuckmum6 for the piccies of your 5m cube beasties! Particularly love the pic of Ethel the explorer sat on top of the cube surveying her estate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
