    Uk weather and drainage, flooding

    So I live in the south of the UK and the weather has been near constant rain for what feels like months. I have 2 Eglu (one big, one small) coops which are great for keeping the birds dry and easy to clean. These are both housed in a 3m x 3m run with an overhead roof. The sides of the coop are...
