Walmart 10x20 Covered Run...In Case Someone Needs One

[speckledhen]

Found this on Walmart.com, not bad price if you consider what a standard dog kennel costs you and those are not wire-covered. Someone may have already posted this, haven't been in this section in ages, but putting it out there. One thing-the company they ship from, you can go to that company, but you'll pay shipping extra on the product! This is free shipping and you assemble it. Just build your coop inside there and add a dig barrier of pavers or big stones.

And it comes with one shade cloth to cover the back section, too. Would make a sturdier greenhouse with the addition of 6mil plastic than the normal ones sold as greenhouses, too.

Or they can count the pieces and buy them all separately and build it themselves using the design, which should save some money, I"d think. But, considering the dog kennels are about $200, that is like several of those put together plus wire over the top as well. Not too bad of a price, really.

If I'd seen something like that when I needed a coop here in WY, I would have gone for it, for sure. I haven't seen any kennels around here with a wire top. And this one is a nice size.

This could make a good duck enclosure too.

Yes, it would make an excellent duck enclosure, very true!

Awesome, cheap rooster prison! I know someone in need of one of those, many thanks.

"Rooster prison", love it! Yup, a good bachelor pen set up for sure!

Have seen that structure several times over the last couple years...was an ebay thing.
It certainly is attractive and might be a good base for a run.
Wonder if the tubing is strong enough to hold a snow load?
Also wonder about the 1x1 19 gauge mesh.

I'm not sure. That would be something to consider. I was hoping it was about as strong as chainlink tubing. The tubing looks tougher than what they make those cheap green houses out of (sure hope so!). It should handle snow, but how much, no idea. It would handle as much as we get here in our mountains in an average winter.

True, it is about the same size.......I wold want to 'touch' that before buying it(like I have a spare 700 haha!)
