  • Looks fab! If you miss the smell, you could always move in with them!

    Just goes to show what one can accomplish if you put your mind to it
    Never test the depth of the water with both feet

    The only reason people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory....

    Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.

    • I'm very, very impressed!!!! Used to be a dab hand with a hammer myself in my younger day. Too arthriticky now though. It's beautiful. You must feel total satisfaction when you look at it. And aren't you lucky to have such an obliging son with a handy friend!!! Well done you. Sandra

        that's the plan, cos it's gonna be a few weeks till the run gets sorted, as i can't move the sheets of netting lol .... they'll be much happier in there though, they'll have plenty more room to run round than they have now

            yeah wish obliging son and his mate could have had it finished in september lol ....... has been a bit of a nightmare getting them here when i need em and when the weathers been ok to do it.

            thanks all ..... i'm actually quite proud of it, thought it would end up looking crap, but i think once it's got paint on it, it won't look too bad at all ........ as long as you see it from a distance

            i'll be soooooooo glad when it's finished though it's been a long haul.

                                Ty bach ........ thanks for that terrier ....... i suppose if i ever get fed up of keeping chooks it will be quite useful having an outside one

                                hmmmmm i'm sure i would need some kind of plan/drawing of that ..... unfortunately, i just nail a bit on if theres a hole and if theres still a hole silicone sealer is brill and ermmm for some reason one side isn't quite straight, and erm ........ yeah, think i'll just keep the plan in my head lol ..... it doesn't quite look like the original drawing i did of what it would look like, before i started building it
