Lewis Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Have taken some photos of the set up we have atm The Go has Cilla + her pekin chicks in, the Classic has the 2 older Pekin chicks in and everyone else is in the WIR The little fence (part of my eBay run) between the Cube run + the WIR is to keep them in the top FR area so they don't trash the rest of the garden! They don't have their wings clipped so can hop over it but tend not to, the little pekin chicks can walk straight through the bars of it though My pop hole into the Cube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 It all looks great Lewis and very clean! You are slacking though, I'd be converting that big shed by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Had to take the WIR photos today 'cos I only cleaned it out yesterday, doesn't normally look like that! Trying out a new bedding called CushionBed, chopped up wood a bit like easibed, which sjp recommended ... so far so good! The shed is full of chickeny stuff but think they'd go mad if it had chickens in it ... kinda took over the Greenhouse, can just see to the left of the Go in 1st photo, for the broodies + the spare hutches/runs One day I'll have as much space for chickens (and feeders + drinkers ) as you!

Lewis Posted September 16, 2011 Author Share Posted September 16, 2011 Thanks Gerald the duck gets on fine with the chickens - he used to have a wife, Jemima, but the fox got her last year The Go was originally bought for them, they used to be shut up in it at night but now he never uses it and just sleeps on the floor of the the WIR ... he'd sleep outside if he could! One thing is he gets the WIR wet by throwing water from the glug everywhere, but its not too bad The big red tub trug is his pond, we have another one on the patio by the house too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy ben grace Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 That looks great, i love the idea of the run you have put on the go! Its hard with all the babies keeping them all seperate, my growers are free ranging with the two older pekins now and are being evicted from their eglu so beryl and her babes can use it! My poor old hubbie has to make a ramp for the growers today so they can get used sleeping in the cube... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 and where is Lewis?..........Off to Uni. Nice set up for your parents Lewis, have you set up a webcam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 20, 2011 Author Share Posted September 20, 2011 We do have a webcam! Used to be in the Go, now in the hutch in the Greenhouse, but haven't got it set up so I can watch it in Aber Have put the chicks together today and taken Cilla out so they're easier to sort while I'm not there - will be back a few times before then but they can stay in there until Christmas Need to make up some Flubenvet feed tomorrow so they're done before I go back!
