Rivervale Poulty Ark LH 2. £195
+ Size -1.3m wide x 2.4m long.
+ This is a slightly modified and upgraded model to the MK1 above.
+ I have increased the size of the run to allow more room for the hens. I have also added a door on the side which makes it a lot easier to gain access to the run and drop a water feeder inside. The door can also be left open to allow the hens to rome free if required.
+The door to the roosting area is easily accessed via the main door, picture below. (Galavinised hinges) and turn button to secure shut.
+ Perches inside, (removable / or fixed).
+ Nesting box/ (Removable)
+ Easy to clean out, door provides easy access for cleaning.
+ Optional External nesting box can be added.
The frames have all be made from 2x2 and 2x1
tanilised timber and also 10mm thick tanilised shiplap. This makes them very solid, so to make them easier to move I have placed two wheels on the back of the ark. Now you only have to lift the light end, and they are really easy to move.
Rivervale Ark LH3 £155
This is a slightly smaller version to the MK2. I wanted to make a slightly smaller and cheaper option that was suitable for 1 or 2 large fowl hens or bantams as not everyone has the room for a large ark. Ideal for a small garden, without loosing any of the advantages from the larger arks.
Also ideal broody coop.
+ Size - 1m wide x 2m long.
+ Suitable for up to 3/4 hens.
+Handles on the front and back for easy moving.
+Sleeping quarters off the ground, allows hens to room under the ark increasing the run capacity, shelter when raining and also prevents rats.
+Ladder up to hatch door for easy access
+This ark is made from all tanilised wood.
+The door to the roosting area is easily accessed via the main door, picture below. (Galavinised hinges and turn buttons to secure shut.)
