Hi Everyone! I was looking for any thoughts on my plan for a wind break to winterize our run.
Currently. I have a 34 ft x 10 ft run. 10 ft of the 34ft is under the 10'x10' coop.
I plan on putting a heavy-duty clear-ish (w/white fiber reinforcement) tarp all the way around the perimeter of the run with screws and fender washers.
This tarp is going to be 3 ft tall x 12 ft long. (Currently they (4) are 6ft x 12ft, I'll be cutting them in half longways, sewing a hem, then adding new grommets to the hemmed side)
So do you think this will give enough of a wind break for my flock, or will having it open at the top cause more turbulent winds in the run?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts. It got too late to take a picture of the structure, I'll add tomorrow...
