Thank you Mo

Thanks Helen, that's a very good idea then I could technically enclose the cube within a high enclosure and maybe introduce perches or levels too. Thank you, what is the cost of aviary panels and are they fox resilient? Mr fox is not allowed lol

Welcome! Hope your girls settle in and enjoy their new home

So sorry you are experiencing such bad luck. It is such a shame your girls are poorly, and hope things improve for you all very soon x

Hi, could use one of two things really, if build up of surface grease from hands etc over years try plain good old fairy liquid on a rough flannel. Or another trick I'd WD40 which will gently remove anything including stubborn marks off Lino or laminate wooden floors. Hope that helps, try a little p...

Nick is correct in saying the staff skim off the quality items, resorting to blatant lies in describing what they have purchased (if lucky) or mostly pilfered from piles of donated goods! I have experienced this myself on many occasions as a volunteer (shop shelf stacking and ironing!) I was horrifi...

WOW! Who would have thought that the humble cucumber could be so diverse in its uses - I am totally impressed! Will definitely try the slug repellant tip thank you Maggie

Thanks again guys, I feel a whole heap better now I guess you are right, I will probably get more girls later as I am a big softie! I have settled on the cube with 3 metre run and I know you can extend at 1 metre a time for £100 each metre. May even get some handy chap in to make the run and then pu...

I agree, it seems ludicrous to base this on legislative guidelines, rightly so, they legalise the battery system! But I would have thought that a 1.2 metre wide by 3.0 metre long enclosure would be ample for three girls. Obviously should I wish to purchase more, I would need to upgrade the size. Tha...

Thanks, that's what I thought too. It would be ok for the 3 girls I want to keep but certainly no more -thank you for your help although, I have been told by many that keeping chickens very quickly becomes addictive.....oh well, better go get some wood then to make bigger run lol

OMG bit confused omlet web site say that UBS with two metre run has capacity 8 and 3 metre run 10 I don't quite agree with that but I hoped that would be ok for 3 girls oh dear! :( xx

Hi, could free range up to a point, although garden is not the biggest in the world. Will need to rethink whether we have enough room to go ahead

Morning, thank you so much so if I got the 3 metre run with the cube that would be okay to house 3 chickens brilliant! xx

Aww sorry for your loss, RIP Phyllis xxxx

Hi, I am curious to know what members recommend as best run size per chicken. I am keen to get an omlet cube and the standard 2 metre run looks small as it includes space under the house too. Any advice would be great, I don't have a massive garden, but want to make certain the girls, when I get the...
