I ran into a problem trying to match up my current run with the new coop I am building. The chicken door on the coop is higher than the run because the coop is on stilts. I am going to have to do some retrofitting. I thought I could kill two birds ( sorry) with one stone by placing a sheet of the corrugated plastic panel at an angle, with the coop end being right above the chicken door and then run it out lengthwise towards the end of the run. That way it will serve as a roof for the run. I would use 2x2's for the triangular frame on each side and then remove about two feet of the hardware cloth on the top of the run to open it up for the ramp to go down into the run. I think I would just use eye hooks to attach it so I could remove it if I wanted. What do you think?
