Salop Chuck Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 What lovely pictures they are all delightful. I couldn't help noticing how the ladder to the coop was covered with plastic netting. What a brilliant idea. I have bantams and it would definitely give them something to grip onto while climbing up the ladder. I think I will try that.

mimi5 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 Yes please feel free to put stiff netting over your cube ladder. I can't take any credit for the idea, I pinched it from someone else who had done it before and posted it on the web.(Google is a wnderful thing at times!) I was very worried about the pekins with their feathered feet!!!!! But it works a treat, they just shuffle down it and jump off the end! I used cable ties and the green netting was just from homebase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxinediana Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Lovely photos. I was going to call my chickens Milly, Molly and Mandy (after the children's book) but when they arrived they didn't look like their names and so they are Blackie, Fluffy and Little Ginge. Sorry no photo!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
