Hi! I just joined. Cys Chickens is my moniker. I'm getting chicks for the first time and am nervous; I don't want to dispose of dead chicken! I'm thinkng buff Orpingtons because they are quiet, broody, and heat resilient. Our summers are HOT (115), DRY and our winters are not uncommon at -5 F. Mycoop will be moving each month to a new spot oof my yard. Any suggestions on vermin bracing of the run? I can't think of anything except dig 2' down along the perimeter, place 1/4" mesh firmly attached tp the run's base. That's going to be hard to do every month when I move everything. We have the regulars, rats, racoons, skunks, coyotes, and people have told me mountain lions.
Hoping I get great recommendations for my flock.
