Hello there and welcome to BYC!
Nice run! Definitely cover the top of the run to keep most of the hawks out. Chicken wire is pretty flimsy and not only can varmints chew through it, but a heavy fast flying hawk can crash right through this wire. So if you can get your hands on some hardware cloth, they would be much safer.
Enjoy your new babies and welcome to our flock!
