You need to make sure that a run is big enough to confine them in full time, if you go away for the weekend, have predator issues, etc. You definitely need some sort of roof or netting on the top. Hawks will take and eat your chickens.I was thinking I would have a smaller run area attached to the coop and then have a big area they can roam around which will be moveable.
Predators, potentially foxes. Don’t think local hawks/eagle are likely to go for them. Although neighbours say Ravens go for the eggs. Kangaroos breaking the fencing and rabbits going for the feed also a factor.
