Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

I can only reiterate those above, 1/2" hardware cloth is your answer. Solar motion lights as well help us immensly.

You may find more ideas in this forum, or you can post in it.

Electric wire keeps foxes out of my run.

Hello, so sorry for your loss. As others have said, hardware cloth does a good job with keeping your flock safe while they are in their coop/run. If you were free ranging, you may want to consider making the run very large so the new flock doesn't have to be outside of it.
