I'm still considering getting some chooks for our yard. We have a small area we can put a pen, was looking at this one on ebay

Image

It measures 1676(L)*755(D)*1032(H) mm it would suit my yard well. Looks big enough for three hens.

Looks nice, I reckon if it had wheels you could go anywhere and rotate it. There are some nice looking ones under the chook tractor thread

Hi LV,

That is a fancy henhouse you've found. Chicken Ritz I reckon. Where do you collect the eggs? through the door with the window? I wouldn't want to go climbing around inside to find them.

Hi Granny Smith,

I haven't got it yet it's just he one I was considering. I've put a bid one one of them, not too worried if it's successful or not they seem to have plenty.

I'm assuming you would collect the eggs through the side window.

Well I'm now the proud owner of one of these chook pens, now to arrange getting it home. Then some chooks I'm leaning heavily toward Autralorps.

That's not rude :) I got it for $166 + $70 for the courier. Should have it early next week.

That looks like a chook pen that any pre school kid would be proud to have as a cubby house!!
Price wise I reckon $166 is very good buying.
