Help! Need ideas for a chain link kennel coop

[MyTDogs]

Hi All,

My chickens & ducks are housed in a 10x10 chain link kennel coop. They free range during the day & are put up at night to avoid the critters.

Now that the rainy season is starting I am finding that I get too much rain blowing in from the sides & from my gutter overflow (coop backs up to the house).

I am thinking I should close int he sides some...any ideas in cheap materials? Assembly techniques?

Thanks!

My coop has metal roof, it doesn't get too hot in FL at 8 feet high.

That coop is really nice. Mine has a tarp roof over a cattle panel.

My current problem is I am trying to come up with a way to enclose the walls...even partially would work. I just need to minimize the rain that blows in & I want to be sure that no critters can get to the birds if they are sleeping near the fence along the bottom.

A roll of AstroTurf? ot that thickish plastic stuff, or plywood like the East side of mine... um...

Scrap tarps and wood...

A hood of a car...

Ok I'm just being silly now-

How about a bamboo fence or lattice like I have on the floor it is vinyl
