Covering the top of the run with chicken wire or?

I just wanted to thank you for the suggestion of where to put welded hardware vs. Chicken wire. Our pen or run is about 20' x20' and we thought about putting the chicken wire on top but I have seen a raccoon just outside of the pen and we don't have hens yet. We ordered a store bought coop that we thought we can add onto eventually but I am a bit concerned about what to do to keep predators from getting in from the top or from an aerial assault. I know we have opossum in the area as well. You were right about it being cost prohibitive for the larger runs which was frustrating us and causing concern for the welfare of our future hens.
