Hi All,
We have been really busy over the last week building our 1st chicken coop for our 4 Pekin bantams. We looked around
but thought we could do a reasonable job for alot less money.
It is not quite finished yet, but i would love to hear your thoughts.
We look forward to your comments,
Paul and Sue |

Hi, thanks for the comments, the coop is 6ft by 3ft. When the hens are about 20 weeks old we will be looking to have them roaming in the garden so they will have more space. This is the reason we went for bantams because we haven't got the biggest of back gardens and the 6ft run was about the longest we could accomodate.
Many thanks,
Paul and Sue |

Hi,
thanks for the positive feedback  , the last photo is the one i am building
just a few days later. We decided it was looking a bit plain so i got talked
into cutting a heart shape into the door (i must admit i quite like the heart now). 
Many Thanks,
Paul and Sue |
