Hey everyone! Been using this forum for a while, but only recently made an account! Thought I'd make a post as I have just finished building my new chicken run, after getting fed up with how I kept them for the last couple months, fenced off and uncovered, which resulted in a huge muddy area of the garden, of course! They are kept on straw, which has a permeable membrane underneath to seperate it from the mud, but allow any water etc to drain through... hopefully.

Let me know your thoughts! It is 8x8 foot, and has 2 bantams and 2 regular chickens!

So;

The first pic is after the second coat of wood treatment.

Thanks for all the welcomes and replies!

This is my first proper DIY build, and I'm pretty happy with it so far. I live in South East England, we have on and off rain, but nothing awful, so hopefully this will keep them nice and dry!
