I'd raise it too, nice to have a space they can get under during rain and in the winter if you have snow pileups.
Keep in mind that you may need to get under there to retrieve a chook for various reasons, so make it high enough for a human to get under there.
I would also add a run area attached for more run room....depending on how many chooks and if you plan to free range or not.
