6FT BY 4FT SHED BUILD

[owain20]

Update, the shed is being emptied tomorrow by the landlord. Take some pics later when i measure up for things. Need to get the flight build ASAP. My father wants my birds out of his shed so need the flight to put the Javas in lucky for me i've only got 20 stock birds so nothing huge!!

[owain20]

Cant decide on a walkin flight or half flight. If i went for a half flight i could have underneath for storage of nestboxes and seed bags. Plan might be to have 2 flights one main flight and one for babies as the Java struggles when put in with adults. both half flights.

Good luck with the flight build Owain. I am always in awe of people that can make things. I am rubbish at it and have no imagination!

Looking forward to seeing what it looks like.

Update;

Nothing to update at all been to busy inside my new house to even contemplate doing the shed, its a mammoth of a task in itself! As of yet don't even know where to start with the shed as i've taken a back seat from the birds to allow me time to finish my house and its tough to juggle kids to look after, work and doing my house let alone giving the birds the time they need.

So plan is build some kind of inside walkin flight and get it finished at some point so it will act as a stock flight for my fathers finches untill I have the time to look after them, I know the plan in my Head but unsure as of yet whether i should go for one large 6 by 4 flight or 2 flights 3 by 4 unsure yet!!

Because one half of my stock shed will be my workshop for making all the wooden bird things breeders need at knock down prices! I already have interest from local fanciers.

Thanks for posting Owain, i love build threads The shed looks a lot of work but it should be a lot better than a wooden one once youve completed it.

Thanks Hayley, its a huge job! It needs a new shed door, new window. The roof is good it doesnt leak at all surprising! May of bitten off more than i can chew!
