Just moved to coop

Do you have a way to get them out from under the coop? When you let peepers out that is going to ring the dinner bell and whatever comes will scare them under there.

They don’t have any access to under the coop. I put up wire there as well

OK your going to need to put a panic box in there. They are NOT going to run up the ramp to escape with a hawk standing on top of that run.
They have to be able to get out of sight or the hawk will just chase them into exhaustion and die.

I was looking into getting a bigger run that is higher as well to put there instead so I can walk in as well. I figure I got little time till I let them out of the coop

The other benefit is that my dogs like to go outside a lot and they don’t like hawks or anything else that doesn’t belong there. So they even watch from inside. Plus I got a camera that overlooks the area and when it sees motion it makes noises and talks

Make them a box anyway. It will help until you or the dogs can get to them.

I only tell you this from experience. I want you and your babies to get off to a good start.
