What makes a chicken coop easy to live with?

[Sheli]

We got our Eglu today but have a problem with the construction

We put the small side panels on but when we tried to put the large side panels (step 10) it told us to put the top bolt thru the 2nd mesh hole. When we did that the bottom skirt on the large panel is higher than the small panel so it doesn't match up!

We have our chooks arriving tomorrow so we're in a bit of a panick

Can anyone tell us what we're doing wrong? THANXXXX SHELI

Hi Sheli

 

Ours were delivered and put together by Omlet as we had hens at the same time, so I can't be much help.

 

Have you managed to sort it out?

[Sheli]

Hi Lesley,

No It's not sorted out yet so we will have to call Omelet on Monday. I really wish they coulda come & sorted ours out but we're outa the area

I'll let you know how we get on.

Anyway, You enjoying your chooks?

Ours put themselves to bed tonight all by themselves and only their second day he he

Just hope it doesn't rain before we get leak sorted.

Hi Tara,

Hopefully Omnelet will be able to sort us out on Monday.

On the bright side the chooks are great.

The first time we've had any so we're total novices.

How you getting on with yours?
