Leicester_H Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 OH has almost finished constructing my Cotwoldwood company WIR (just kickboards to add). We wanted a green roof to fit with garden and green greenhouse Am due to get 6 ex-bats to live in it (18 May) - 2 green classic eglus inside it - think they'll like it ?

Leicester_H Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Actually, still have to add gutter (not included) and some roll up plastic covers (ideas copied from ANH!) And a chicken gym (OH to invent) to keep them amused! H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyripkim Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 It's beautiful, I'm sure the lucky girls will love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 That looks great Hazel! I'm sure you will find it much easier to manage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicester_H Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 That looks great Hazel! I'm sure you will find it much easier to manage! Hope so! Still have Lily & Boo in eglu and 3m run (divided into 2 with canes) - hopefully for a long time yet. Will (eventually) let them all FR together but will keep the new girls separate. You'll have to pop round for a cuppa when the new girls arrive. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will love it If you find yourself needing a little more floor space in the WIR, I find the Classic Eglu's work really well when stacked on top of each other. This is my setup Ex-Bats will need a longer, gentle, slope to get to the first floor in the early weeks, but once they have got their strength up, you can change to a shorter, steeper, ramp or ladders.

Leicester_H Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 Hi Thanks - yes - that was the plan in the longer run. I was planning to have both at ground level at first - then when they were stronger to put one above the other like you suggest. (I assume/hope moving one won't confuse them ? By then, they should be stronger and so can be 'helped' to find moved eglu) H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
