Nice looking coop and run. I have a couple of suggestions. 1) that looks like OSB board and not plywood. Get it painted as soon as possible! Moisture will start to deteriorate and rot it rather quickly. 2) You mention coons, chicken wire will not stop coons or other predators. I would cover at least the lower 2 feet with 1/2 inch welded wire hard ware cloth as well as extending it out 2 feet around the perimeter of the coop and run to keep out digging predators.
