I went with 2 rr 2 americans 1 sexkink and one barred rock. I am building my run / coop on the back side of my 10 x 16 shed. Out side run is 10. X10 welded wire powder coated black deal which I framed in with wood. It will have 8' of roof 2' sun patio with wire ceiling. Ramp into shed up to a 3 x 7 shelf in the back corner of the shed 3' off the ground. I am still going to store yard crap under the shelf. Shelf tied in with wood with a large hinged section for cleaning. 3' roosting bar and other end 2 nesting boxes. Oh I got 2"square wire today for the shelf protection is 2" ok?
