Mercedes55 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Although we already have a 24ft by 7ft WIR, because it has a solid floor OH decided he would build a fox proof run along the back of the garden so that the girls could go out there and have a proper scratch around in the soil and be able to eat some more of our shrubs You can't really see from the picture but there is a pop hole at the back of the WIR and when we open that they go through a little tunnel that takes them into the new part. It's taken the new girls a little while to go out there. The ex batts went out into it right away and now they all seem to be loving it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
