Looking for a large run that can be moved

Thanks. That’s what I’m trying to take the place of, my current netting. I love it, but my predator problem are hawks.
Fair, you could try shade cloth, perhaps if they can't see your birds they won't hunt them but it depends on how persistent your hawks are I suppose

Thanks. I’ve been looking at those and they seem like an ok option. was hoping for something with decent wire pre attached.
You could place the run inside your current electric netting. I know it adds another step when moving it, but it also adds another predator barrier.
 
I wouldn't call that large, TBH.
It must be. Just look how many chickens are living in it.

I was looking at the 9x18. I was toying around with building, but really would like to buy something. Burnt out on building. Ha.
your simplest solution is to build a hoop coop from cattle panels and put a hinged hardware cloth skirt around it. Take any of the million plans on BYC, make them a bit wider (which will make the run shorter, but gives you extra floor space) and however long you need it to be. Realistically a smaller run that gets moved more often is going to be much easier to deal with though.
