I'm trying to find a dog house big enough to fit 7 bantams it would be in a large covered run and I plan on building a tractor or letting them free range with me watching. I just don't know the dimensions needed for such a thing. The plan is to start with 3 silkies and 2 frizzle cochins then keep two offspring from the silkie/cochin pair. A large doghouse would be perfect since none of these birds can fly and they all like cuddling together. http://www.wayfair.com/Dog-Houses-C409478.html?redir=dog+house&rtype=6&dept=7&ust= this site has a lot of houses I could modify if needed, can someone point me in the right direction? http://www.wayfair.com/Pet-Squeak-Doggy-Den-Dog-House-PETS-2001-EAK1004.html I like this one because it has a door but would the large size fit all 7 if they had room to explore during the day?
I posted this in another thread but figured it may fair better standing alone, I just really like the dog house idea, it seems easier and possibly cheaper. Especially since I'm not very skilled when it comes to building anything really and my poor boyfriend is just about sick of trying to build a coop from scratch (he built one earlier this year, it was quite stressful) So I would like something that I could maybe put together on my own, or with only a small amount of help from him. I would appreciate any help I can get from my byc community, Thank you and I love you guys!
