Not any more... the red treated isn't as good as the green stuff. green pt has to be nailed together using galvanized nails. It will destroy a common nail.Dont use the green stuff? Isn't all pressure treated green?
@Steven Bussell do you live where frost heave is an issue?If you build a wider heavy base than just a cinder block you would get a way from digging .
I like what Zoo has done

No sir... I live in the bay area in California. The weather here is almost perfect. Very few times do we see below 40's and high above 90's.

Thanks for the tip. I added my location which is New Hampshire. I just want tobuild an enclosed run on piers. The coop is already a prefab. Any advice is appreciated.
I was wondering about putting 4x4 laying on the ground and building up with 2x4 walls. So many options it's stressing me out like crazy
Don't sweat over it. Build what your comfortable with. Make it safe as you can. If you have bear's or high winds then you really need to make sure it cant be moved. Where I live we can get pretty high winds. I have a large solid roof over my coop and small area of my run.Thanks for the tip. I added my location which is New Hampshire.
