i'm new to this site and really donno how on earth it works. anyway - nearing the finish of my run. since i have lil bantams and i'm on a strict budget for this , i wanted dog houses in my run rather than building a hen house. freecycle folks gave me a nice little one and a great big one. so i'm happy about that! next i have to get the overhead wire done to keep predators out. and a door into the run. it's going to be really cool , and the area around it is going to be a little patio area with two flower beds and seating. i'm going to fence that in so people can let the birds out into the patio area to hang out with the birds.
