Weve decided to buy another shed, but b4 i put it up i wanted some ideas as I'm not happy with the set up ive got (the old...well 4 m old shed will be re-located & redesigned as well !)
any one got any pics of there shed/living accomadation/feeding system & storage plz?
 
I have all mine freerange and i fence it off with c & c grids i use vet bed through out

The boys have 2 single level c&c cages above the girls and the girls have there own big section on the floor

I use the gravity feeders for them which are excellent with a litter tray in the corner which i put old newspaper on and their hay and veggies with the feeder just above them its also good if your bottles leak because the newspaper could absorb it

I will sort some photos later of how it is now as I'm always changing it !
 
will also sort out some pics later for you mine are also free range in cc runs

Hi Alex
Mine live in here, it was a gazebo for me to keep out of the sun originally, then adapted to house the piggies :)

I have another 10ft hutch on top & use the top of that to store all my essentials except for their food as we had an unwelcome long-tailed visitor this summer ::)

we found the corrulux easy all you do is measure add i think it was 5inches extra all round and then draw lines score and cut where necessary and stick the corners up, they fit perfectly in the grids and are very adaptable, mine are waterproof and easy to clean out, I got mine form a local plastics warehouse cost me £20 a sheet and I think I got 4 or 5 sheets, the floor of the sheds are lined with metal looking lino from B&Q, MIcks cut the front double doors into stable doors so I can leave the bottoms shut but open tops, yes I'm always called Shell mainly by my dad but Mick calls me Mitch,

ohhh me likes your set up

sadly yest we found we have a long talied visitor too now,damn the thing >:( >:(
 
ohhhhhhhh very nice, I'm really impressed ! OH will be looking at idea's pics tonight to start drawing up plans (he only gets every other weekend off bless him !)
 
My OH has built me a shed and just put the electricity into it. We went for a look last night so I could tell him what I wanted, I'm having 3 blocks of 3 hutches on legs. They're 4'x2' and most of my piggies are in pairs so shouldn't be a problem. It also leaves me a few spare hutches - well, you never know! The shed is 12'x8' and the floor area will be for my French Lop rabbits , they'll have a bedroom box in there too. I can't wait!
