Hey, all! We have our two coops and finally have chickens! Now we need a run. I'm tired of chasing silkies all over the farm trying to get them back in the coop. My husband and I are having different opinions about what a run needs to be. I'd like it to be covered, he doesn't. I'd like it to be tall enough we can walk around it, he doesn't. Blah blah blah.
What do you think are necessities of a chicken run? We plan to have this be a permanent run. We do get a lot of wind since we have over 100 acres of cleared pastures with very few trees to block it. We spent a lot of money on our coops and I would like a nice run.
We'd both appreciate any thoughts & advice! Thanks!
