You are very welcome Chris. I am similar to you at the moment as I am trying to finish an extension that I have been working on since January. In-between looking after grandkids etc etc.
I don't know when is good for you but I am usually free most evenings if you want to come over.
Give me a couple of options and let's see if we can get something together if it suits you.

This is what the site should be about, helping eachother can only be good for the sport. And most of all members on the site, if you live in a small distance of other members. It is good to meet up and enjoy the sport.

Loft idea

5ft young bird section with v perches

4ft hens section possible v perches or boxes

7.5ft section for 12 cocks

Would be just over 3ft storage for corn and treatments rings ect ?

So the other option with the 8x6 stock shed is to only have 8pairs of stock, and have the storage in there instead ?

Then I could make the young bird section a bit bigger and also maybe have an extra set of widowhood boxes in the cocks section.

The stock shed dosnt turn up till around the 3rd of august tho :(
