Yes, I'm feeling the same - its really frustrating trying to find something that is suitable and we are not good at DIY so I don't think we could make one either. It would be great to see some options that are recommended.

Hi Mooie, that's not far! lol  Anytime you fancy a run out, we are only about 45 minutes drive from Kings lynn, up the A17!  If I know you are coming, I'll even make a cake!

My Brian will show you how easy it is.  My panels are 2 metres long by 1 metre high and if its for chooks like my silkies which can't fly very high or chicks I just cover the top with netting, but they can be stood up the other way to make 1 metre by 2metres high like this!

And Ice made a run that she put round her small coop with run, and she is only a mere woman too!   You'd be amazed at what you can do!

and here on this thread is my poots house and run made out of panels. The house was a thick wooden tool shed which Grannies Brian put a pop hole in for me and a nest box:-

Oooo now that looks like a much better idea! I need a bigger coop as the one Ive got doesn't seem big enough but that will lower the cost and make things easier if all Im looking for is a good hut.

oh and cake........mmmmmmm   very tempting! Where can we get the panels from? Would need to be somewhere that delivers as I don't think we could get them back ourselves.

When you say put together with cable ties how do you mean? Im just thinking it would be great if sometimes in the summer we could take the run down completely and let them roam maybe  

Joyfull ive just seen your link too, that looks great!! Thank you both i was starting to feel really disheartened but you've cheered me up
