Chicken run recomendations

[OkieSLW]

I live in town and I was wondering if anyone had great recomendations on compact ,easy stored, chicken runs? I only have four slw's .

I use dog lots. They can be covered with the right hardware.

See I thought of that! Maybe throw some Avery netting on top?

What is your take on A frame runs?

Some dog kennels come with a roof covering. You can buy roof covers separately from Walmart.com. I'd get the pitched (not flat) kind. Don't forget to check out what Tractor Supply has (I always forget).

If you get one, make sure you anchor it to the ground well. I imagine you get some pretty stiff winds in OK.

They work pretty well. Tractor Supply has some that look more solid than the chain link kind. For example:

Word of warning: If you get the chain link kind, and you're going to give your girls access to the run at night, or going to be gone during the day, cover the bottom 2 feet or so with chicken wire or hardware cloth to keep raccoons and other critters from reaching through the fencing to grab your girls.
