Help building pen now???

We have tin running 6" straight down in ground right now. Would it be better to attach wire running horizontal out or pour concrete horizontal out?

The tin is probably good enough. I think you're referring to predator proofing run. I personally would never do concrete because if ya ever have to change things up or move it than it would be a hassle. We have used 6" wire down or rocks around the run with success for a year

Yes we are talking about predator proofing the tin is 20" above ground and 6" in the ground

I'd be happy with that myself and we live in the middle of the mountains with every predator known. The biggest problem we have had is from hawks and fox so definitely full protection from every angle is a must. We free range so our coop is our number 1 defense
