Ok -
Downed a cop of really strong coffee, ran outside and measured again. I can do 112 sq ft of run if I move some bell peppers. I think I am going to say that that's enough for 4 hens, build it, and get my 4 hens. Hubby is a great guy, but rarely compromises. I'm not going to let this opportunity pass.
Gonna stick with the walk in coop and a dirt floor BUT I will go with booth2010's suggestion and make a "sandbox." I'll run and get more hardware cloth and appropriate fasteners once the store opens. Paired with a 2 ft skirt around both run and coop, I should be good to go.
Thank you for ALL of your comments and for the food-for-thought!!!
What a roller coaster morning! It is 6:47 am here, but my body thinks it's 8:47 pm in Vietnam still. Oh to be in my 20's again... when things like sleep didn't matter so much...
