Things To Consider | Layout, roof colour, rolled rear gutter

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

Layout?

Position and Access
Carefully consider the placement of your stock shelter. Position solid walls to protect against prevailing wind and rain. It is advised to orient the open front towards the sun, as sunlight is beneficial.

Weather Protection

Keep them warm
"A place to have that afternoon snooze out of the hot summer sun or ... escape from the cold rain and wind when the weather turns nasty... or just somewhere to be a pig!"
Shelter also helps in regulating their body temperature and reducing stress, contributing to improved growth and productivity.

Upgrade to a Roof Colour?

Upgrade Roof Colour to 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)

Add a Rolled Gutter?

Add a Rolled Gutter
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. A rolled gutter also guides water to the gutter ends, preventing a dripline.
