Underdown Bird Supplies do not manufacture or import chook houses. There are a lot of good chook house builders out there, and one such are Appletons. We are pleased to detail their chook houses here but will pass on enquiries to be dealt with directly by them. We take no commission for this and detail them just so that our customers have them available as a trusted supplier. All dealings over these houses will be direct with the manufacturer and Underdown Bird Supplies will not enter into any discussion over them. We are only likely to confuse things if we try and act as the middle man!

The chook houses are flat pack and Appletons will arrange freight for you at cost. Alternatively, they will assemble them for you if you wish to pick them up.

Underdown Bird Supplies say… ” Cleaning is an essential consideration in a chook house.  The excellent access in this model makes it that bit easier.  We recommend always wearing a dust mask when cleaning out your chooks.  Hot and uncomfortable it may be, but the dust can be very bad for you when you are regularly exposed to it.  Day to day is fine but when you are stirring up the litter the dust in the air should be avoided.”
