Quote:
We bought a number of sheets of eight foot x two foot corrugated galvanized roofing panels from Lowes , $12 to $13 each, and wrapped them around the pen. That way any predator has to first jump up two feet, then grab on and climb in. Nobody has made it inside yet.
Our pen is 8' x 20', so it took 7 panels, we spent under $100. That was the biggest expense we had (the fenced in area was already here, and the coop is all recycled materials, so our total construction cost was maybe $150 to $200).
