What ever you end up doing don't use chicken wire. Use 1/2" hardware cloth for your run and to cover any windows or vents (anywhere a predator could enter your coop or run). I have found that ordering it on line is half the cst of the local stores. Welcome to BYC. I hope your build comes out great.

Think like the predator..... only 19g hardware cloth 1/2 " mesh.... ( www.wireclothman.com cheapest) do not forget top and the ground. DO NOT USE CHICKEN WIRE. REMEMBER SHADE THEY HATE THE HEAT.how many chickens 3-4 ?

I had a hawk come down right http://e-six-sigma.net on top of my big Delaware while I was in my workshop just feet away. I saw it bank coming around the apple tree and got to her just as it landed ON her. I had stepped into the shop for just long enough to cut a couple premarked boards.
