    Hi All,

    Looking to build a hen run this year based on a modular frame design I.e. 1.5 x 0.6m rectangular timber panels tacking wire to the outside. This way I hope to be able to build the run and extend it by adding panels whenever I need.

    I am looking to get cheapest source for welded galvanised mesh. Any ideas ?

    Maybe try Adverts.ie or Donedeal etc. I have been planning on one day making a chicken run using a trampoline, (just google: trampoline chicken coop hack) and recently saw one already made for sale on done deal, not sure if it is still available, but it might be worth checking out.

    We made one at weekend using fencing panels off building site that the brother had picked up.
    Quick/cheap job and tall enough to walk round in.
