The run arrived in a box, smaller than expected, and was quickly erected even though the instructions aren't the best. The frame is very easy to put together but it will require 2 people, just to stabilise the components as they are assembled to make the wider framework.
The chicken wire is a very nice construction and is easily cut with snips. The base layer is easy enough to install from door jam to door jam around the perimeter but the roof will need some additional force to attach to the frame and not leave gaps. You get about 120-150 ties with the kit but I reckon you need another 100 just to ensure there are no gaps for rats, mice and other birds to enter.
The cover is an excellent quality and very easy to install - it works very well as a sun shade and, as we found out last night, a rain cover.
I have added a ground board around the outside and inside to deter foxes and also folded a piece of the fencing 4 times to create a decent door head, where a single layer would be too weak to ensure a secure closure. I have also flared out the catch edges to make locking the door easier; the original shapes catch the fence wire if not exactly aligned.
All in all, it is a nice kit with a couple of small issues but well worth the money.
Hutches excellent n extension
But ramp doesnt work as expected needed to raise up on mini hut to stable it
This hutch is perfect for my 2 guinea pigs!
It was so easy to put together - I did it by myself in about an hour and half.
Really pleased!
I added the extension too which is in the photos!
Put 16 slabs down and secured it to the slabs as it's no good trying to secure it to the tarmac as it won't hold
