I've always been amazed by the price of pet housing. My chickens lay and roost in an old double kitchen cabinet,4ft up on top of pallets. Ok,so it's not pretty,but it's warm,comfy and easy to clean. Anyway,if it's just the two chickens you have,why not something stylish and resonably priced for outdoors..... http://www.shedstore.co.uk/itemlist.php/Larchlap/Overlap_Garden_Store_32/findclas/Overlap_Garden_Store_32   it wouldn't take much to add in a roosting bar and an old orange box for a nest,and if you put in a shelf half way up,somewhere to store the food,spare bedding etc. eh voila! .........

For £25 more you can get a 6' x 4' Focus or B & Q shed, and it'll hold a few more than two if you want to expand
