Omlet cube and run

[the-real-tinkerbell]

ok im feeling very D.I.Y ish

so i have decided that tomorro im going to build a W.I.R from scratch for omlet cottage yes in one day i must be mad but i have no children for the day so it has to be done lol .i love my but had forgotton how difficult it was to keep clean and to catch the ladies (i think ive been spoilt by my current WIR) lol

 

the garden for omlet ottage isnt massive and it has to go in there as they are my daughters ladies

 

so my question in do you think 6ft x6ft is big enough for 3 ex-bats if i put the on the outside and add some levels ?

 

thanks in advance kellie-anne

I reckon that would be fine. My run is roughly 8ft x 6.5ft and I had 5 girls in it (till Milly died last week ) . I have lots of levels and branches and they seem very happy in it.

 

You can see it in my signature link .

Hope it goes well, look forward to seeing pics when you have finished. To me is sounds big enough for 3 hens, although I'm pretty new to keeping hens. We have 4 ex batts and for nearly 2mths they were in just the standard Eglu run which I think is only about 6ft by 3ft and hasn't got much height either.

Aint "Ooops, word censored!"ody here. Looking at your thumb nail pictures of your run. Fantastic stuff.

 

My WIR is sitting on the drive waiting to be assembled (we have a new fence that has to go in first), so it was lovely to see all the things you have done with yours. Getting the tarps on hooks like that is a great idea.

 

I shall be showing my husband what needs to be done by showing him yours
