I liked reading how your plans evolved, that seems to happen to most all of us. Good job on building and documenting your build. Love the planter boxes too!
Thanks - I plan on writing about my experience as a chicken guy in winter. I got into this worried about predators and winter. I'm now only worried about the crazy weather usually get.
Thanks for reading!
It's always good to be able to repurpose existing materials, that really helps keep the cost down. One thing, I would recommend using hardware cloth for the run and openings (in place of or over the chicken wire). It costs more but is worth it to protect your flock.
