Cheers for the links. Their payment policy and terms bit reads a little odd though - you must leave5 stars feedback and if you are not happy do not use ebay feedback form? Is it just me or is that a little bit suspicious?

[lynda66]

it does say if you are not 100% happy contact them so they can sort it before you leave feedback ....... some people buy stuff then leave bad feedback without even telling sellers theres a problem, i've had that quite a few times, when the problem has been sorted after and left the customer happy ....... from the other side it sounds ok, as they might want to make sure every one is happy??

Good point. Wonder if Madmax's mum might be 'persuaded' to buy him one for his birthday tomorrow (Madmax currently saying we can't have chooks in case we have to move)

[lynda66]

ooooooo that would be good ...... they do look nice and it won't be too big if you need to move it

The bit about feedback is reasonable (if less than well phrased) but I wouldn't buy one. The perch is BELOW the nest box, and the whole thing is on short legs, rat heaven underneath......

[lynda66]

you could stand it on breeze blocks and move the perch up sorted.

Still preferred the Mini idea!

I'm not going to be buying a henhouse anyway. There are several reason why chickens aren't an option at present, but if I was, I wouldn't buy that one (probably get busy with the sterling board).
For those who lack the aptitude for construction, it isn't too bad, but I still don't like the short legs and the low perch<g>

It's murder if you've got short legs and a low perch isn't it...........ask Ronny Corbett!

I wouldn't buy anything from this seller - if you click on his feedback jobby, then click on the negatives, you can read them all in one concentrated lump... Added to the dire English ("Keep the coop clean and hygiene all the time, Its design features a comfort and health environment for poultries"), which usually means being shipped in from somewhere else, it seems like inviting hassle to me! I've learnt the hard way - don't buy from anybody with less than 99%, and read the negatives of anyone with less than 100% just to be on the safe side!

Sometimes it's better to pay more and/or buy local

Actually it might be worse to have short legs and a HIGH perch<g>
