I'm building this coop: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/country-acres
Now in these plans they have the roof extend over the run, plywood and shingles, which I actually expanded by about 4 feet. I was going to follow that and build the roof over the run, but my friend was making a huge deal saying I shouldn't, I should just lay chicken wire across the top of the run. Now I already have the supplies, but if I have some left over I can reuse them so no matter what I can't really lose here. I just want your opinions on this, if you have any other suggestions I'd take them too.
