A tip from the flintstones!! keep your chicken mesh below 20mm and better still 16mm then the local sparrows will not fly in and nick all your costly chicken feed!!

Also have cats to keep off the rats and mice also after the feed

Wow !!  That looks fantastic.  Is the frame metal or timber ?  If the latter, where do you buy your timber ?  We've been pondering whether to get a couple of chickens for eggs but we don't think we'd be up to slaughtering them for meat.  Are you really going non herbicide ?  If so, as I said before, I'd be interested in your barrow sprayer.


The main advantage of the chicken run and coop is that its mobile I can move it every other day in minutes with the use of a sack barrow, then the chickens can obliterate the next piece of land, no herbiciding needed and auto fertilizer plus added advantage we now no longer need a compost heap the chickens compost overnight and there are no ugly stinky barrels to empty!!
