NDR for the Duckboat page experts.... roof panels for a ROUND shed

As a continuation of my previous chicken coop project, the lady of the house wants to utilize an existing CIRCULAR metal shed as the chicken coop. The problem is that it had a plastic sectional panel roof on it that had collapsed during one of the big storms a couple of years ago. I've inspected the panels and think I can possibly put the roof back together, but with several panels cracked I can keep the chickens in, but it won't be a watertight roof.... There are no nameplates on the shed and the shed was there when she and her late husband bought the place.

Picture in your mind the roof on a grain silo..... that's what I need, for a roof around 10 ft diameter.

So.... I think I need to replace the roof and have no idea where I can find roof panels for a circular roof, preferably a light transmitting plastic/fiberglass material.

Any ideas?

Jim,
You could always try commercial sheet metal guys. Have them fabricate it and then you merely roll it into position and rivet or screw the edges together.

All the metal grain bins around here are round and have 'cone' shaped roofs made from heavy gauge galv. metal. You could try to find a manufacturer around your neck of the woods.
