Building my 1st run
« on: October 16, 2011, 19:38 »
Began creating the run today for the chicken coop!! I have never done anything DIY like this before so it was all very exciting!  Well the 5 posts are firmly cemented into the ground (level and straight!!) and also I have laid the pavers for the coop to sit on!

About the coop - bit gutted - the roof panel has a huge crack in one of the pieces of wood so will be ringing the company up to complain.

Bit of a pointless post I know, sorry! But I am very proud of what I have managed to do this afternoon!
Time for a muscle relaxing bath I think

Well done with your achievement!

I'm no DIY-er but love having a go. I've spent the last week making my run - much smaller than yours by the sound of it but I plan on letting them free range when I'm around. Just have to marry up the run with the house now -that's definitely not going to be easy!!

And so you should be proud, well done on getting as much done as you have. You will have to get it finished and post a photo.  :D

Oooh yes we always like photos!  And of course we appreciate any tips you can offer on what worked and what didn't, so those planning their runs can learn from your experience as well.  :)
