1/4" welded wire mesh from four feet on walls, then two feet from floor on the ground. Same wire on floor and. All covered with river rock around edges of coop. Chicken wire covers all walls. Doors latch securely with 1/4" welded wire covering them. Snake proof. One little flaw--there is a 6" gap between roofs of coop and covered run. Only way in is through this gap from the top.
Something got in a small gap from the top and killed one of my silkies, still dont know what happened. I remember when I first got chickens, the guy from the feed store told me there is no such thing as a predator proof coop.
Something can always get in sometime....
Sorry for your loss. Fix that gap or it will happen again im afraid.
