To give your birds a greater sheltered area than just the house, and to comply with any bird flu requirements should an incident occur in your area, it is simple to add a cover to the run; either stapling on a simple polythene sheet or tacking on a more substantial cover. Many parts of the country are suffering from increasingly variable weather, so giving the birds more shelter is a kindness to them. If the run is staying in one place you can create a bark run.

ELECTRIC NETTING - the answer to being able to let your birds have a great deal more space but not be in danger from daytime predators such as dogs, foxes, badgers, mink etc. Our netting is green and black so much more visually pleasing, its also taller than standard offering you greater protection. This will also help to keep wildfowl flocks at a distance if you are concerned about avian influenza.
