I have a lot of pretty fellas...deciding who goes and who stays is both emotional and difficult.  I've already culled all of my Ancona roosters as they were getting much too aggressive and I have only one Ancona hen...
My husband enclosed my run by digging around it 8 inches or so, and cementing in the 1" sq 14 ga wire fencing with 4 x 4's 4 or 5 ft apart and the same fencing on top of the run.  The screened windowns on the coop are covered...
