I live in a residential neighborhood and we have 4 chicks. I have never seen any hawks around until today when I walked outside just in time to see and hear a bunch crows chasing off a red tail hawk a few houses over. My daughter and our boxer were outside with the chicks, and I never let them out unattended. I have 3 silver metal pinwheels around our coop to deter birds. We have a small urban coop, and had planned on letting the girls free range in the back yard. I have a predator apron round the coop. Now I wonder if I just construct a covered run. Does anyone have any advice on adding on a covered run to one of these pre fabricated small coops? I would think it should be attached, but tall enough for an adult to walk in to be able to secure the chickens into the coop portion. I have seen a few posts on pinterest about a collapsable run. I read that if it is less than 4 feet wide a hawk can not swoop in...any truth to that? Sorry for my rambling... I am just not sure where to start. I am adding a picture of my adorable, but probably not practical coop.
