Newbie still after options

Hi BigMark

I can tell you quite quickly that most of the members on here HATE the hen coops on e-bay

Thnks Aunt Sally. I'm a bit at a loss on things at the moment as there seems to be a MASSIVE array of houses out there from £80 to well LOADS of money......
I dont know what the key features should be s any and all help would be great. I have a local supplier that I am thinking of going to have a chat with http://www.happychicks.co.uk/

Thanks for the point in the right direction

we found these at Wyevale garden centre for £120. Good value, hubby has adapted it , has put a strong bolt on, will have a pop hole soon, an old kitchen cupboard used as nestboxes,2 extra coats of woodstain on it and almost ready for our young birds. The roof is slightly different, it looks fab though.  We also converted Band Q lads sheds a few years ago and they are still going strong.
I really dont advise cheap, chinese ebay henhouses, they are flimsy and doubt they would last a winter without warping or leaking. I have got one though, an arc only to use in the summer and in an electrified run for broody hens, it is quite flimsy though and I have already broken the door!!! :blink:

and this is one of our converted sheds used for runner ducks

Well, we are off to Happy Chicks tomorrow...getting excited now ha ha ha
