Hi,
I've bartered with a friend to have him convert a metal shed into a hen house with a run on the outside. He got a painting and I got a place for my hens! It seems to be working well, but it's an old shed, and the metal is bent in places and there are some gaps at the bottom where the metal is not attached to the foundation. I don't think a raccoon could get in but a snake sure could. It does have a wooden foundation, so I thought about stapling or nailing hardware cloth to the wood, but not sure how to attach it to the metal walls.
I'm not much of a builder, nor is my husband, but I can get creative. Any ideas?
thanks,
Dana
