I am in the process of building a run for my roosters and intend to use posts, wood and wire to cover the top. I tried netting, but it was more trouble than it was worth. Some people attach electrical conduit or PVC pipes to the fence posts and curve them over to the posts on the other side and cover with wire. Perhaps you could get some ideas from these:Question for you guys: Any advice on a better roofing system for my run?
Peg board works great and you can hang stuff on it. Comes in sheets. Lowes has it.Yeah it has been a big help. This is not at all what I wanted. My grandma has an old barn that blew down. I wanted to use that wood to make a nice, but simple coop for them. It would mean a lot to me to use that wood. My brother-in-law was going to build it for me and bring it up in September when he and my sister came for a visit. I was so excited! But now he is in jail and hopefully going to federal prison for a very, very long time.I am not at all handy, and now I have no way of getting the wood which is a nine hour car ride away. So you do what you have to do. I still hope to get a coop made out of that old barn wood. But at least my girls will be warm this winter. Anyone have any ideas on how to divide it in about half? I figured I could put supplies on one side and the chickens on the other. Maybe just a plywood board in the middle? I also need to vent it.
