    Show me your coop runs!

    Here's mine. My buddy gave me the wire all I had to do was buy the posts. I left a 6 inch gap between the 2 runs of fencing. My run is not covered but my old flock never tired to fly out of the run either. Even when I free ranged them and locked them up they wouldn't try to leave.

    With my last flock last year, they lived inside until they had feathers under a heat lamp. then I moved them out into the coop, but I kept the ramp up until I felt they were more acclimated to the weather.

    Yes I am. I'm probably going with what I had last time but with a couple changes. I'd like to get 2 Barred Rocks, 2 Buff Rocks, 2 Australorps, and some ducks. I'd like to get Welsh Harlequins (2 hens, 1 drake) but I don't think I can get them where I live without mail ordering them. And mail...

    All but one. I gave her to a friend who has a bigger flock. She's still learning the pecking order but is starting to fit in over there.

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I had a flock last year but they were killed by 2 stray dogs. My fault I guess since I had been leaving them out of their run to free range. It wasn't a problem for months... Until it was... (2) How many chickens do you have right...
