I am not construction savy so I'm purchasing a coop from our feed store. I'm going to paint with porch paint and change out the locks on it. It has a raised enclosed roost area with a solid floor and the bottom is an open run area. However the run area has no floor. I'd like to attach some kind of wire bottom to protect from predators. I want my girls to be safe. I would imagine hardware cloth is too fine and chicken wire isn't strong enough. What should I use to protect my girls from digging predators? Thanks so much..
