My Coop Progress Photos ( pic heavy) (update finally finished the run)

Yeah, I will. Not too worried right now. The whole coop and run is in a fenced in area. I have wire over the top to keep hawks out during the day. I shut and lock the coop at night when the racoons are prowiling around.
 
I too would suggest hardware cloth along the bottom ASAP. When I expanded my run I was in a hurry to get them in it and figured I'd add the hardware cloth later. A couple of days later I went out and a wild barn cat had one of my young Marans roos pulled up and against and through the fence eating him. I was sooo ticked. The hardware cloth went up that day. I don't have a clue how he got a hold of him, but he did and it was the roo I was saving to replace my old cuckoo Marans.

Yes, please do that. You don't want to come home to see a chicken pulled out through the wire by it's head or legs. It's happened!
