    Good question! The roof was an afterthought. We were going to cover the top in hardware cloth, but since the ground is low there we decided to roof a portion of it due to mud. Problem was, I did not want to block the sun coming in the windows in the winter (they're on the south side) so hence...

    Nobody around me had the big rolls in stock, they would have special ordered them and jacked the price way up. Probably would have come from the same mill these did anyway.

    That's exactly my plan, the birds get 6 feet, I get 4. I'll put in a cabinet and a couple of shelves right inside the door. I have built a nest box that will go in the framed hardware cloth divider wall, that has a slight slope to the bottom and the eggs will roll out the back side for easy...
