How much would it cost to build this?

Question

go to google images and type in Covered poultry or rabbit cottage and it is the 3 rd one

Answer 1

Cut down your costs by getting lumber from old skids.  You will find these outside of factories or appliance stores... many businesses have them.  

Ask if you can have a few of the old ones.

Salvage some lumber from them.

Then go to a feed stores and buy the wire screening.  Not chicken wire but the heavy gauge wire mesh on a roll.  Ask the sales person and they will know what your talking about.

Then just use the wood the size that it comes on the skids.

These types of cages are very easy to make.  No need to go out and spend hundreds of dollars.  

AND...when you custom build it you can make it just how YOU want it anddddd make it really great for your pets.

Answer 2

depending on the wood choice u choose i would say $150-$200. Im esimating beacuse im unsure how large u want it. And the wood choice you want. I would put a mesh bottom on the top leval too so the wood wont rot up there from the rabbit going to the bathroom.

Answer 3

around 170 dollars

Answer 4

I agree with the $200 estimate, but if you can reuse old lumber, why not? Here's a good guide to costs for bigger projects...good to keep handy so you have a guide.
