DON’T BUILD THIS IN YOUR KITCHEN! IT WON’T FIT THROUGH THE
DOOR. SINCE THE CHICKEN PLAY ACTIVITY CENTER IS LARGE ONCE
CONSTRUCTED, WE SUGGEST YOU BUILD EITHER OUTSIDE OR IN YOUR
GARAGE OR BARN.
IDENTIFY ALL PARTS AND HARDWARE THAT ARE INCLUDED WITH YOUR
ACTIVITY CENTER. GRAB A SCREWDRIVER (OR HAND DRILL), A RUBBER
MALLET AND IF YOU HAVE A CLAMP, IT WOULD BE HANDY. FIND A LEVEL
PLACE TO BUILD IT AND AN EXTRA SET OF HANDS WOULD ALWAYS BE
HELPFUL. START BUILDING!
YOU ARE GOING TO BUILD THIS ACTIVITY CENTER IN SECTIONS AND WILL BE STARTING WITH THE LEFT SIDE. GET PARTS #1-#6 AND SET THEM
AS THE IMAGE SHOWS. MATCH UP NOTCHES BEFORE INSERTING ANY OF THE PIECES TOGETHER.BEING THIS IS THE BASE
OF THE UNIT, THESE
PIECES ARE GOING TO FIT VERY SNUG, SO ENSURING IT IS SET SQUARE AND GENTLY USING A RUBBER MALLET MIGHTHELP.
A.
PLACE #1 LEFT END BASE WITH THE TWO NOTCHES CLOSER TO THE GROUND FLAT AND INSERT #2 BACK LEFT BASE
(NOTCH FACING FORWARD AND CLOSE THE GROUND) INTO #1 WITH THE TONGUE AND GROVE TOWARDS THE
BACK. INSERT TWO #A SCREWS THROUGH PRE-DRILLED HOLES AND SECURE.
B.
ALIGN ONE #3 UPPER FRAME SIDE ON THE BACKSIDE OF #2 AND SECURE WITH ONE #A SCREW ON THE
BACK AND ONE #A ON THE SIDE. REPEAT WITH SECOND #3 UPPER FRAME SIDE BEHIND THE CENTER
NOTCH ON #1 AND SECURE WITH ONE #A SCREW. (NOTE-THE OTHER TWO #3 UPPER FRAME SIDES AND
ONE #4 TOP FRAME PERCH WILL BE USED ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE CENTER-SO SET THOSE ASIDE
FOR NOW.)
C.
REST #4 TOP FRAME ON TOP OF #3 SUPPORTS AND SECURE ONE #A SCREWS ON EACH SIDE THROUGH
TOP PRE-DRILLED HOLES.
D.
SECURE #5 BACK LEFT CENTER FRAME SUPPORT ON TOP FAR RIGHT OF #2. ENSURE THE PREDRILLED
HOLES ARE LEFT SIDE FACING.

WE RECOMMEND EXTENDING THE LIFE OF YOUR CHICKEN ACTIVITY
CENTER WITH OUTDOOR PAINT OR A CLEAR FINISH. IT HAS BEEN
STAINED BUT USING A NON-TOXIC OUTDOOR PRODUCT OR A CLEAR
POLYURETHANE WILL PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PROTECTION AGAINST RAIN,
MOISTURE, HUMIDITY AND SNOW FOR MANY SEASONS TO COME.
NOW! SET OUTSIDE FOR YOUR FREE-RANGE BIRDS OR WITHIN YOUR
COOP AREA AND LET YOUR BIRDS ENJOY! AND DON’T FORGET THE
YUMMIES IN THE TREAT BASKET FOR YOUR BIRDS!
