          Things To Consider | Layout, roof colour, rolled gutter

          Give careful consideration where you are going to position your hen house.

          Layout?

          Best Position and Access
          Carefully consider the placement of your hen house. Position solid walls to protect against prevailing wind and rain. It is advised to orient the front mesh panel towards the sun, as sunlight is beneficial. Ensure easy access to nest boxes, as egg collection is a daily task. Additionally, provide ample space for accessing the person door, particularly for cleaning, allowing room for a wheelbarrow.

          Line your nest boxes with Chicken astroturf for clean eggs every day.

          Nest Liner?

          Nest liner works well Thumbs up from both the hens and us!👍🐔🥚 Lovely, clean eggs to collect each day. We have seen no broken eggs since using the chicken astroturf. Hens sometimes kick the wood shavings out when fluffing around to lay. With the chicken astroturf, they cannot, so eggs are laid directly on top and stay clean and unbroken.

          Upgrade to a Roof Colour?

          Colorsteel Endura?
          The roof and flashings are constructed from galvanized corrugated iron. For those seeking a specific roof colour, please choose from the Colorsteel Endura Range. (please google latest range online) Upgrading to a Colorsteel Endura roof enhances aesthetics, reduces glare associated with galvanized iron, and complements your home and outbuildings effectively.

          Rolled gutter on an Appletons Hen House

          Add a Rolled Gutter?

          Rolled Gutter at Rear?
          We can add a rolled gutter in galvanized iron if needed, or if you want a roof colour, choose the Colorsteel Endura option. Rolled gutters look good and remove the sharp corro-iron edge, which could be at head height for some. If you can walk around your hen house, it's best to choose this option. A rolled gutter also guides water to the gutter ends, preventing a dripline.
