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… “Wow.  With all this space you can keep your food inside away from the sparrows and water inside away from the sun (which grows algae inside the driners and degrades the plastic).  The only tip on this house is don’t get carried away and over stock it.  With all that space you could fit in a lot of chooks, but if you put too many in to too small a space you increase pest and disease problems and make cleaning out a chore.  Stick to the manufacturer’s suggested stock rates.”
