Default Hermans moving house

Done a new enclosure, maybe it will last awhile, the old one, the first is nearly 4 years old. Electrics to add to the hut, for a warm up lamp and of course some tweaking. The little Budda is the foreman

The start concrete blocks dug in, bottom wire meshed and slabed, 1ft down. Add some rocks and a cave

Boards in place, chicken wired up

Nearly there

Hut in place, this was ex display, damaged £30, 4 years ago, some weeds and plants

2 caves and and a cold frame, the glass panels on the side, i intend to make into another hot area ?

Thank's everyone, the torts went in the new one today, 2 was not sure and hit the hut. Alec the larger Hermans is brave, he had a good scout about. The other 2 ventured out later to eat. The old pen, and another smaller one, i would like to offer to anyone who is in the area.
