I am so glad your DH is better. It's such a good feeling when you can finally do away with the tarp roof trust me I know lol.

I'm already loving it. Since we have plenty of the roof panels left we are going to do more upgrades. Matching roof on coop, brooder/storage. Skirting to hide the apron wire and kick/splash panels at run door side.

That is awesome!!! I have a section I have to put a roof over, but it's a large area.

Our run is 8x8, not big. But I have panels on top like the side panel and I had put a 13.5" riser to put the slope in for the tarp. We used the riser to make the rafter and then put cross braces 2 foot apart (middle of rafter length, between the rafters). With all the corner brackets on (46), it is not going to fall.

We finished off the upgrades today. Coop roof changed from metal roofing to the PVC roofing, put PVC roofing on the top of the brooder/storage roof, added the PVC skirting to both coop & brooder/storage, put the PVC on the run door for a splash plate.
Landlord was here today. He was okay with the way the coop & run were. He really likes the upgrades. Said it looks good, that he knew we would have it look nice. Chuckled and said lucky chickens.
