I measured the yard today and am able to fit a 9m x 6m shed over near the fence, the extension to the aviary will be from the existing aviary to within a metre of the shed wall.
this means that the extension is going to measure 11m long x 6m deep.
am going to break that into about 4 different sections. the first will be an area to grow green food for the birds, a holding cage for young birds and a couple of sections that will be like a cage in a cage for birds that dont mix well with others.
this coming weekend I plan to dig the trenches for the foundations, so long as the weather stays below 35C.
cost of materials for this will be approx $1200 Aust. metal frame, 10mm wire and the tin for the roof & walls.
am hoping to take pics as I progress and will try to update this post along the way. it's going to be a long slow process though, unless I can win the lottery.
