How many chickens do you have? Maybe catch them and lock them inside.

I have two and yes as soon as the wind was going crazy, I put them inside.

And thank you!

My chickens hate it when it gets windy and I have 94 chicken so it’s impossible to catch them all and put them in. But they all go in when it is raining or snowing really hard or it is really windy. I just go out and shut the doors.

I would put up some plastic or something to provide shelter from wind and rain in the run. Leave some openings near the top of the walls for ventilation but make the area at ground level is draft free. I am sure your birds will love it!

I use a tarp on two sides of my run to stop winds in the winter. Try using a tarp, old blankets or something like it. Put the tarp on the direction that the wind is hitting the coop/run. You should only tarp/blanket the run. They will be fine in the coop. Then you can take it down once the wind is calm.

Great! I'll keep that in mind.

Just make sure the coop is anchored down. Our first coop like that we tied cinder blocks to the corners so it wouldn't blow over. You also might try setting it up against a structure to block the wind on st least one side.
