Very nice setup. I am planning on building a run something like yours - out of 2x4 frames. But the top cannot be flat where I live due to heavy snowfall. Still considering options for the top.

I wish I had done something different. Someday I will fix the whole thing. Until then I rely on a snow rake to remove the snow. In the case of this winter, it was not an issue.

Totally agree that chickens can be happy without free ranging. There should be no guilt associated with confining chickens to a run where they are safe from predators. Thank you for all the suggestions to provide diversions to the chickens confined to a chicken run. I added a pallet compost bin to my chicken run, with the front panel only half height and the other half of that pallet on top. My chickens love jumping in there to find kitchen scraps, composting material, and sun bathing on the top panel.

Nice to read your journey and adjustments you made to protect your flock after a devastating predator attack. As someone who lives in snow country, I love your pictures and comments on what you feel is important re coop and run. Thanks.
