Hi everyone....BJ signing in looking for answers to questions that my wife & I will no doubt come up with as from last Tue week we took 9 POL chooks into our life.
We live on a small farm where the owner had chickens until about 7 or 8 years back when Mr fox got in and killed the entire coop in one night.
The old coop is still usable, it comes with a large run 40 mts x 5 mts surrounded by a 6' netting fence, that needs a couple of posts re-newing. For the time being, I've erected a smaller run inside the large one covered with a polypropylene tarp covering as per Defra on this bird flu. I've also installed an electric fence we're doing our best to keep foxy out at all cost...no fox is getting our girls if I have my way.
That's all for now....I'm off to look at plans for building a new coop.
Cheers BJ.
