Build a Predator Proof Chicken Run
Josie and I build a chicken run for the new chicks. Then we attached it to the "Hen Den". By adding wire to the bottom of the chicken run it will help stop burrowing critters from getting in. This is a pen that we can use if we are gone for a couple days or while the chicks are still young. This will NOT stop bears or large animals of that sort. But for the smaller critters like chicken hawks, possums, racoons and bobcats it will do a pretty good job. If you have trouble with weasel, minks or snakes in your area you may want to use a 1/2" hardware cloth in place of the 2x4 welded wire.
Note: If you are going to be keeping the chickens in this kind of a setup it would be wise to cover with tarp or a roof. Moisture/rain can cause issues with odor and bacteria.
Material used on project:
100' of 2x4x36" welded wire, (could use 36" chicken wire but not as strong) 5 - 2x4x10, 3 - 2x8x10',
7 - 2x4x8' all treated lumber, Staples and 2" screws. For the door 3 - 2x2x8' plus latches and hinges!
