Hi,
I am thinking about making a coop from a dog kennel, either a chain link or welded wire, large run type, kennel.
I've made one before, from a 6x8x4 ft. chain link dog kennel. I was able to make it predator proof everywhere, except around the door. Dog kennel doors all have inches of space around the doors. I did lose one chicken to a predator that was able to reach through that space and gut the chicken.
So, I need to figure out how to cover this gap and still be able to open & close the door. Have any of you solved this issue? Or do you have any ideas?
Thanks,
Kim
