Great job!! I am thinking of making something like this for my Bobwhite.

That is AWESOME!!! I am currently working on my coop, and will be building a run as soon as the coop is completed. THIS has given me an idea of how to build my run.............. hhhmmmmmm!!! Looks great!

WOW I love your run, it looks AWESOME! I would like to do something similar, but more temporary, to keep a couple of birds circulating through our veggie gardens - turning over the soil, adding manure etc - staying for maybe 3-4 weeks in each one. Well done with your build!

I guess I will have to get busy then. It sure would be nice if I was an artist. I have the materials list and the measurements in my head so thats no problem. Thanks all for the compliments.

Have you gotton any snow since you put it up. (Do you ever get snow?) I love that idea, we have a metal roofed run that I had to shovel off a few times this winter as the snow load was WAY too heavy. Just wondering if it would slide off...

Although mine is not done, my hoop house has a large rubber tarp over it. I never had any issues with snow and I live fairly close to you. Since I have not covered mine with hardware cloth yet, I use mine as a ladder to reach the top of the hoop. They are quite strong.

Thanks for posting this! I think I have found the basis for a pheasant pen I have been looking for.
