my run stands at about 7 ft tall with another 2 ft of sharp wire around the top to stop anything getting on the roof and for i think 6 yrs now has proved totally fox proof but i am now wanting to make smaller runs which wont be as high as i am now going to really really think about putting on solid roofs which is why i am thinking of making each run smaller in size as i may well be doing this on my own so the lower the roof the easier it will be for me but would i be asking for trouble if i did this and dropped the roof down to just over 5ft or 6 ft ?? my local bird centre has runs that are about 6 ft tall with solid corrugated roofs that must be 8ft by 8ft as most of it is wooden sides with wire mesh fronts they look good but at £350 each i wont be buying any but am tempted to try and make my own and convert what i have .
1 pen will only have 3 faverolles in it the 2nd just bantams and the third will house about 10 adult birds but as they die of from illness or old age i doubt i will be replacing them but i have plenty of room to make 4 pens or maybe more smaller ones in time .
