Okay so here are a list of questions I have in regards to actually designing my coop/run. I am building for 6 hens and I'm planning on making a 12'×6' run with an interior 4'×6' coop 2' up off the ground.
For my run I am thinking about the support 2"×4" boards that will be holding up the chicken wire/screening for my hens. The length of the coop is 12' so I was thinking of having a support every 4', but the width is 6'. Should I be good with the non-coop end being the 6' with no support beam between or should I make that side have my door to enter the coop?
Also, should I be tacking the chicken wire/screening inside of the support beams or outside of them?
What would you recommend for roofing that doesn't break the bank?
