    Why wasn't I warned.. not to build a coop, or heck get chickens... Oh well too late now. New build started this weekend.

    This looks great! We have added walls to sides of run to block snow drifts so I don’t see why you can’t add walls on one side. Only concern would be ventilation, but with two sides open should be fine! Have fun!

    Resin shed reuse

    Sorry here are the photos of the run. We have a 1/4 run that opens from the top, then a 1/2 run that has a small door to the side. So far its been a breeze to clean. I have sand in the base and there is hard ware cloth on the bottom. We live in Colorado on top of a hill and we have a breeze...
