    Howdy all :)

    Im thinking of building a chicken run out the back and before I dedicate myself completely I am just looking for a rough price on the complete cost of the project. I have been looking online and cant find any accurate prices :confused:

    I have the price for chicken wire and thats it.

    Can anyone tell me how much I can expect to pay for corrugated steel per sheet? and also How much can I expect to pay for 1x4 and 2x4 timber per length?

    Any information would be great :)

    Thanks guys.

    The last time I bought corrugated it was something like 6 or 8 euros per ft, for 8ft sheets, It depends on the length of the sheet and the width is usually 3ft, so if it was 6 per ft it would be 18 per sheet. I use lots of 3x1 fencing rails for building chicken runs, they are about 4.50 each and they are treated so will last a lot longer outside than untreated wood.
