I'm planning on using cinder blocks as the foundation to level the coop/run. I have watched a million videos but nobody shows how they are securing the coop to the cinder block. Do I just secure the wood to the cinder block using construction adhesive and then attach coop to the wood i secured to cinder block? I have spent hours trying to figure this out. I hope what I wrote even makes sense 😕 these images are what I'm thinking..not my pictures. Thanks!

I just put mine on top i didn't secure it to my cinder blocks but you could use U bolts if you really want to
 
Wondering what you ended up doing and how this project is going? I am just at the beginning stage of building something very similar and came on here to see what others have done for foundations. I'm almost through digging a rectangular trench to set the blocks into. Any tips or advice for me?

I changed direction and just created level ground and put down 2x4s to rest the coop on. Once down I put a hardware cloth apron around it to keep burrowing predators.
