We have a new urban chicken set up. Small coop and then an out door run area. This is fenced with 4 foot netting and no roof.
The chickens cant get out but yesterday there was a cat just casually lying in the run, it hadn't attacked and 2 of our birds are 5 months old and pretty big so I'm not sure it was going to but don't like seeing it in there...
I'm loathed to put a roof on the whole run as then I will have to crouch when I go in.
Any thoughts on cat proofing it? Was thinking about running another level of mesh around the top to make it 7-8 foot total height?
Thanks in advance.
