Crossing the Road
Sure! Not shown is that I added another 6 inches to the height of the white base board in the front. That way my 8' long 2x4s will be long enough to reach the roof rafters when I frame out the wall. The door will be between the pair of 4x4s. Total area of the run will be a little over 100 square feet. I plan to have another run out from under the roof too, connected with a tunnel, so the chickens can get fresh air and sunshine when they want it. Or are allowed. LOLThank you! Lots of thought, adjustment and then more thought and adjustment. Feel like it works for us.
Hows your build coming along? Any photos for us yet?![]()
The chicken's door in the coop will be in the wall of the shorter section, directly opposite of where the nest boxes will be. The taller section of the coop will be the roosting area. Not sure if they'll use it because the run will be secure, and the chicken's little coop door will be open 24/7.
