PVC clear roof panels (About $14 THD 4 X 8 sheet)
Are you able to get 4 x 8 panels in NH? I can only get 26" x 8' in NC and they're $14. I did get some tan 26" x 8' Tuf Tex panels for about $8 a piece when they had a close out.

very nice!My run is covered, but here is a picture after I just added yard and garden waste in the fall.
Yeah, I believe they are 4 x 8 from The Home Depot. About $14 bucks and up, depends what you get. The UV ones I really want are like in the mid 20s...to much for my hobby.Are you able to get 4 x 8 panels in NH? I can only get 26" x 8' in NC and they're $14.

Sand definitely. Wood mulch will rot and ultimately make a smelly mess. Also with sand you can rake it.I have a chicken run that is 8' x 8' and currently there is just dirt on the floor. I will have 6 chickens and live in SWFL where it gets very hot, humid and rainy in the summer months. I've been living with the dirt prior to this new flock of hens, but wanted to do something new to the flooring so that the girls will not have wet feet during summer, and reduce the smell too. I've thought about both contractor sand vs mulch chips and it looks like each have their own benefits. I've never done mulch chips so wouldn't even know what kind to get. Any suggestions on either way for areas that are more wet during 1/2 of the year?

We use sand on run floor and pine shavings in coop . The sand allows them more comfort when it rains. It's a softer landing for them when they jump/ fly from roost. They also have a dust bath available all the time. In the winter we add hay to part of the run and the coop for warmth. I love my chickies
