He then put on one of the front doors and built a nesting box. The box will have a plywood lid, which will be covered in roofing felt so it is waterproof. It will also obviously have a entrance hole from the house!
Ste built the frame for the door on the run.
...and Ant's dad started painting the frame.
I started shovelling the stones that had surrounded the pond into the hole. These should help with drainage, but also means we can grass over right up to the frame.
Ant's dad made good progress with the first coat.
...and Ste finished putting the other door on the house. The area infront of the house is concrete and we will be breaking this up and also grassing this area.
At the end of day 3 the run and house have had their first coat of paint and are looking good.
Over the next few days the plan is to give all the wood a number of coats of paint ready for filling the hole, putting the chicken wire up and finishing the house.
