OK.. I have my run just about completed.. Its framed and now I just need to put on the chicken wire/hardware cloth. i have stretched the hardware cloth out about 24" from the coop on all necessary sides.. i have it covered with rocks, dirt, and a few other things that will make something go ouch if they dig in it. anything else you guys can think of I would appreciate

You didn't mention something above to protect from hawks and such?
