Picket Chicken Run

[Passionate for poultry]

Anyone have pics of their chicken run where they used picket fencing??? I would love to see pictures.

Oh, that sounds cool. I was at Lowes today and when I saw their picket fencing I thought how cute it would look if it were done right. Are you planning to do one? I hope others will actually post some pictures.

We have pickets on top of the retaining wall to seperate the upper yard from the lower garden and where the chickens are. I need to shoot some better photos since i have added some stuff to it.

what kind of tree is that going out of the top of the run

Its a plum tree, about 5 years old. Last year was its first year to produce fruit and we only got 6 plums. Right now it only has 3 growing...

It should get plenty of fertilizer! haha

Thats a great idea, I may do that on the edge of my run that butts up to a creek. We get alot of kids playing in the creek and it would be another way for them to NOT walk into the hardware cloth lol.

Thanks for the pic! Very cute. Yes we are building as I type. We are using a metal "lean to" left over from yucky horses

We bought cedar pickets at Lowe's on sale!!! I will post pics soon. Thanks for the feedback.

I like the design, the nice little plum tree coming up through the roof.
