punxatoni Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Well I applied for a water meter last May and to cut a long story short they never fitted the blighter. I finally got one fitted late summer and applied for a rebate for the gap from their 90 day from requesting a meter to implementation. I got my letter today and am getting just over £400 back!!! sommersaults ensued! Aside from a needed holiday, I really want to increase my chicken count and have been looking for a WIR online. Am hopeless at DIY or I would make one but after hours of looking at vvvv similar coops with a run, I am struggling to find an actual WIR which would be ample space for 6-8 girls. Has anyone bought one online that they can recommend? I could fit a 6metre length and about 4 metres wide run. Suggestions gratefully received.

Olly Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Don't know whereabouts you are, but Aviaries4U are highly recommended on here, although the original owner has sold the business to a colleague I believe they still get a lot of votes.

Lydia Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Flytesofancy provide an excellent service. We have one of theirs and it's been very good. They deliver it flat packed and provide good instructions to put it together. It did take 3 of us to put it up though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunty e Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Bay Animal Housing built mine originally, and it's great. Very reasonably priced too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alet_chicken Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I'm very happy with my run from Bay Animal Housing. He currently has some good deals on ebay (you should pick them up by searching "omlet"), or have a look at the website here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Another flytesofancy fan here. Superb service and a very good product. Smashing to hear about your rebate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken deficient Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Ours are out on our allotment, (just at the end of the garden), but as it's not our land, rather than having a permanent-looking wood and mesh run, we went for a fruit cage type thing, (some differences, making it sold as a poultry cage). It has some drawbacks, but is a lot cheaper and meant that we could provide a much bigger enclosed area for our chickens, without it looking out of place on the veg patch.
