Well it sounds like you got the start of a great pen and run for chickens. I didn't know much about building before I started to build mine and it turned out I had a new hobby building stuff after that. My DH works a lot and does not have time to help me with these things but he enjoys that I am down to earth and love raising chickens and he loves the tasty eggs.
You have come to the right place. This site is full of wisdom, many seasoned chicken addicts and lots of newbies too. Plus, many threads dedicated to things not chicken. Enjoy and welcome.
