Totally Recycled

If a bear wants to get the chickens, nothing you have there will prevent it. Out here, they rip doors off of cars to get at food inside. Perhaps a completely enclosed run of chain link with a solid roof, with the coop inside that. Maybe look into an electrified perimeter wire.
 
I'm sorry about your losses. Your coop is really cute. Don't know about the bears though.

Sounds like the best idea... I think I'd put it around my entire property!


And I love your coop and run. I am also using fence pickets that I had left over for my sides. At a dollar a piece I can buy the 10 more I need to have enough....
 
You may want to do a search on "bears" under the predator section. i've seen some pretty scary pictures of where bears just tore right through heavy duty pens and coops. We don't have bears here - thank goodness! But you might find a lot of people in the Predators section who have dealt with them.
