well i been out on a freeby shopping mission this afternoon ,found 2 nice sheets of 3/4"ply 16"wide and 8ft in length so that is how deep the breeding cages are going to be,i have fitted the base one and painted the wall a nice shade of sail white,got to paint the framework of the flight again i am using a b&q white gloss quick drying low in v.o.c.s and is non yellowing it used to be called everwhite,i can then mesh the flight and get the first 5 breeding cages installedfew more pics below more to come tomorrow

Don't you just love that freebie shopping? Window shopping is not half as much fun.

It's quite a skill to pick up free stuff. It doesn't actually fall into your lap, does it.
