Wasn't really sure where to put this but its about the hen coop so here goes.
This is my progress so far following on from this thread
http://www.allotments4all.co.uk/smf/index.php/topic,47560.msg479459.html#msg479459
As I said earlier in the year she who must be obeyed suggested that I started on the hen coop and run next so here it is

starting point


coop base


inside enclosed run


freerange area


my little helper collecting eggs :D



Already started on the greenhouse and its going to be a fine construction considering its all recycled as is the hen coop amd run. I know I have said it before but I have spent less than £30 on wood and the only othefr expence has been screws, nails and locks. ;)

Thats a proper hen house and run. Bet the hens love it in there. They have room to move and stretch their wings. Far better than the little plastic bubbles that some seem to deem ok to keep fowl in.   
Cheers .. Jim
