    Do you live in or near Sydney? I need someone to help me build a run, i got
    a house for the chooks.. It wont be as big as yours about 3.5m by 1.8m and
    one wall is a brick wall and another side is wired already.. Its a surprise
    for my parents while their away in late August.. Dad has a heap of tools
    and i wanna pay someone bout $500 to do it, should only take one day and i
    want it to look almost exact as yours! :D pleasssse let me know!
