Hi Everyone,
We have today finished the hen house. It's gone from I to we because I needed four hands.
As promised, I've attached some piccies. Sorry to dazzle with the bright background but it's been 90 degrees today. Note the one with the two chicks checking out the workmanship before it was finished. :lol:
I feel pretty chuffed at the result but if anyone out there can pick up on anything else it needs, please say. I know about roofing material but it's going in the barn so it won't get rained on.

How many will it house? And will the hens not eat the black plastic? can see it'd make it easier to clean out. ;) I'm new, so just a general enquiry. :)

What lovely comments. Thank you very much.
The cost did go up from 50GBP (no pound sign on this keyboard) to nearly 55 as I forgot to include the hinges and bolts etc. but still good value for money.
Hubbie is also pleased, he can have his tools back now :lol: That is, apart from the screwdriver bit, it's ruined :oops: and the nearest DIY place that would sell a replacement is 100kms away :shock:
Thanks again
