The New Chickie run

Last week, Mum decided to make a new bigger run for the chickens down behind our car port. We didn't want to have to spend heaps of money on posts and wire 'n everything, so we just took down their old run (setting up a temporary one for them to stay in while their new home was being built) and reused all of the fencing and houses from that! When we moved in to our house last year, we also found that the people who used to live here had left a whole lot of corrugated iron behind one our many sheds (some of those sheets have been used to make a goat hut and rabbit houses too, so they have been well used!), so we used those for fencing down the bottom and put some left over chicken wire on top of that! We also reused the gate from the old run they had.
In total, we only spent $24 which was used to buy some nails!

And now enough talking- photo's!
