How many rolls of this did you need
Your hair is so gorgeous!! Can I also say that you are in such good shape after JUST having a baby? I think the chicken run fits the aesthetic of your farm so well!! I also love how you keep up with all your viewers and almost reply to each and every one of the comments! That just shows how much joy and happiness you bring to the RUclips community!
Thank you so much! This is just about the kindest comment you could make to a new mom 🩵🩵
Love your hair Stephanie. I loved watching this video I miss seeing videos from you. Hope you and Mike and the baby are doing well. Can’t wait for the next video 🥰😊❤️
I miss posting as much! But it’s not forever! I’m trying to gain my momentum and figure out schedule with the baby still. Thanks for being patient with me ❤️
Mike is such a great carpenter and partner. What a team you 2 are. Love what you are doing for the 2024 farm adventures
Very luck to have him!
I agree! Best team ever! ❤
@StephanieMoratto take good care of that guy, not every other guy would have taken the time and care to build right.
Good luck building your chicken run
You should paint the wire black! I've heard it makes it almost disappear!!
Yes we plan too!! Going to paint all the wood black as well!
It does! I did it on my runs I love it
We need to try that.
You can buy it from Carolina coops
Yes, you're right. I keep forgetting to paint mine.
I’d left a little bit at the end without a cover so they can stand in the rain if they want mine love getting rained on sometimes ahah
I hope your flock will grow into a bueatiful healthy flock! Good luck Stephanie! 🐴❤🐔
Me too, thank you!! 😊
They will enjoy it, thanks for sharing and hope you have a blessed rest of the week.
Thank you! You too!
I think you need more wire on the ground for digging predators. Welded wire making a mote about 2 feet out. I think it can be flat, not buried, At least that’s what some others I’ve seen done, and what we are doing
love it so spacious and i like how you made their door on the grass so they just walk out 🐓🐣🐥🐔
I love all your videos and I know it's hard being a mom and an influencer keep up the good work mama
Thank you so much!! 😊
Wow! Amazing home for your sweet hens! Lucky ladies!
❤️🐔
Instead of screws and washers to secure your mesh would recommend flat bar with drilled holes in it or even aluminum with drilled holes in it it will secure a mesh Significantly better than the washers.
Beautiful idea!!!
I need to do this❤
What I love about this is if you ever want more chickens you can just extend your run😂❤
Yes!!!
It turned out beautiful!
Thank you!
The coop looks amazing 😻 I can’t wait to meet the new flock!
So excited to share!
if you have wild life around, like coyotes or foxes, I recomend to extend the mesh 50 cm into the ground.
Yay i love watching you guys build. Always love to see the end. You should get toys for the chickens or pool. If they have such a thing. I love the coop. ❤
We are going to proabbaly add a chicken swing!
Awesome video, thank you!
Wow wowwwwwww beautiful
Eee I’m so excited I love your Chanel so much!!!! ❤
Yay!!
Nice run. Watching to get ideas. Lost three of my no longer free range chickens the last two days.
You made the right choice on the roof.
We lost our flock due to a fox. 🦊
Thank you for making this video and I can’t wait to meet the new chickens. 😊❤
Great job building your chicken run
Turned out so nice!!
Thank you! I love it!!
Amazing 👏
Beautiful. Please add AT LEAST 2 feet of hardware cloth on the ground as an apron. Tamp down with staples. What you have is NOT enough. I would connect it inside, then use giant garden staples, and hammer it into the ground. Your flock is in danger. Also, why didn't you use hardware cloth on roof before you put the pvc panels? That's thin plastic, and isn't safe. I used them, also, but on top of my secure hardware cloth. Like you, I also screw my hardware cloth, instead of staple or ziptie. I've got alcatraz going on here. Nobody's getting murdered at my house. My animals are my entire existence ❤
This is the best one I've seen yet. This actually looks so doable.
Thanks!! 😊 we tried to keep it simple but functional
Lots of great ideas here - I am placing the hardware cloth on the bottom of my run as well and placing dirt and sand on top of it to ensure nothing digs under to get in the run and allows things to grow up through the mesh
I love your coop! I have one that is very similar, and I am so excited for your new flock
Love watching these videos! Thanks for bringing us along during the build. Are we gonna get a new chick vlog soon 👀
New flock vlog yes! Trying to stay away from chicks right now, but who knows with me 🤣
Thanks!
Wow wow wow!!! The brown hair was meant for you!! You look amazing
Thank you so much!!
Great to see your videos again. Congratulations on your baby . I got a new job working at the Humane Society it's very rewarding but physically and emotionally exhausting. I also adopted a new dog from a high kill shelter saved his life.. he's adjusted very well to the pack we just started basic obedience classes as he needed socialization skills...he's a fast learner. Yes predators are awful with small birds sorry for your losses.
It's chick season at tractor supply !!!
I've had my chicken coop for 9 years.
But to save money thinking of restore it painting it .
My chickens are doing great they started laying eggs again last month.
Yesterday went to tractor supply pick up some supplies and organic chicken feed has gone up $2.00 now 28.00 and shavings gone up $2.00 now $7 ... So I am stalking up last year there was a shortage of chicken feed that I get and other supplies so I made sure I got double and triple supplies.
Your chicken coop looks wonderful keep up the great work.
How are your ducks?
I hope the predators didn't get your ducks
I had to lock up my duck coyotes and foxes.
Reading about your day has made my day better❤ thank you random stranger on the internet
That’s very exciting on your new job! And your new dog, thanks for saving him 🐶 I’ve heard it’s chick season and I’m trying my hardest to stay out tractor supply for this reason 🤣 the ducks are doing well, they go back and forth from my neighbors pond to our pond - they just started laying eggs in the barn!!
Great coop. Good job 🐔🐥🐣
Thank you!!
Awesome!
Hi there ! can u please describe the size of the basic wood you needed ? i mean for the post , the roof and the frames . I want to bulid a coop for about 20 chickens i have but i dont know the materials i need to buy to start with . Thank you !!!
Love the chicken run but we always dug a 1 ft ditch around all sides and buried a piece of hardware cloth down or metal tin down in that ditch to keep anything from digging under it been recovered it back up like you did there but we had something down in the ground that a dog or coyote could not dig under
Stephanie, it was a good episode. congratulations
Good luck building your chicken run
Another consideration for cutting the hardware cloth. I built a door for my run and sandwiched the wire between the interior & exterior frames then used an oscillating saw to zip right through the wire
FYI - I had to run the hardware cloth 12 inches below grade to control predator pressure
Your hair looks beautiful! Love the chicken run. We’re looking to do the same on our farm!
Thank you!!
I have a (bit larger) run just like that for my flock and I love it! I will say, at least until it gets dirty and gross, leave the current dirt and grass so they can forage!
Good call on the hardwire, I have chicken wire and don't love it 🙃
So happy for you and the remaining chicken! 🤩
Once they scratch up all the grass I’m thinking I’ll lay some sand!
@@StephanieMoratto Oooooh! That's a good idea!
This looks nice. I’m getting some ideas to build mine!!
Awesome!
Omg so good and ur vids are amazing❤❤!!
Thank you so much!!
Hi, once the grass turns to dirt it gets super stinky when it rains in our run but sand fixed it right up, just thought I would let you know and it’s also easy to clean too❤
That’s good to know!
Mike does good work!!!
Yes he does, thank you!!
Your hair looks so good!
Oh thank you!
I respectfully disagree with your assessment of not getting your return from the run. What you will have is piece of mind that your chickens are safe from predators. That feeling is PRICELESS. I have lost 8 to 10 chickens to raccoons. I will take any necessary steps to protect my birds. I think you feel the same. Great video, by the way.
I have lost 3 chickens to foxes rip Petunia, Ruffles, and Feathers
that is so cool and great chicken run its looks awesome
Thank you!!
@@StephanieMoratto you're welcome
You should use rock instead of dirt. A full grown coyote will dig right under the dirt in no time.
Great video
I have over 40 chickens and 26 chicks come get them…great job 🥰
You should get mud grids for the walk way they help so much bc the You don't have to step in mud and get all dirty we use them for the walkway at our house and near my coop
Good luck and good job
Your husband did a great job building the chicken run 🐓
Thank you 🤗
Really cool! By the way I'm 11 and me and me bestie are your biggest fans!!!
💕💕
@@StephanieMoratto also I know you have had the baby for a little while but congrats!!
Quick chicken story time! So a while ago, when I had 6 chickens, one of the chickens was snatched by a fox. Luckily, my mom was around a chased that fox around and made it drop poor little Feathers, the chicken ended up with a pretty bad eye. But we managed to save her. Just a few weeks later, right after she recovered, she was taken by the same fox, but she never came back. Same with another of our buff orpingtons, Ruffles. Only five chickens left unfortunately. If all of them had survived, we would’ve have eight chickens😭
building projects are always so fun once you finish them. do you plan on getting adult hens or chicks to fill the coop?
Adult hens!!
Do you have a material list? I might have missed it but how did Mike set the posts to account for the trim pieces up top before mounting the roof panels? I’m considering 8ft roof panels but margin of error of setting posts and accounting for the 2x6 or 1x6 up top seems like it might bump the measurements off for an 8’ roof panel or should I error on the side of smaller post set and have an overhang? Ha I don’t know what I am doing 😂
Do u have the list of the wood ect u used to make your run? I love it!! That’s what I want to do.how much did it all cost? I looove the roof. I don’t have chickens yet but am planning to in the next few weeks. But I really want the run built b4 I bring chickens home..can snakes get through the hardware cloth? That’s my fear lol.. I want to caulk everything so no holes anywhere🤣🤣 u did a great job!! Thanks🩷
I love your hair!!❤❤
Thank you! 🫶🏻
Your hair looks so good brown !
Thank you!!
@@StephanieMoratto Your welcome
Just beautiful but you are blessed to have such a talented husband!
I love your chicken run.
Thank you!!
Good job 🎉
my parents want some think like this for are chickens hopefully one ponit we get one which will be nice for them
After using this run for a few months, do you still like the tinted roof panels? I have the same thoughts and am designing a new run with a contractor. I wanted maybe half metal panels for shade and the other half with the clear panels but I really am not sure about how much light comes through those tinted panels.
With the predator issues, burying some hardware cloth into the ground as well is a good idea
Very good nice job
my chickens are mean. lol
Can you tell me the wood you bought I want to attatch this to my shed? Or mainly the clear roof where do i buy that if you can kindly share? I love the roof
The roof came from Home Depot!
I’ve got 19 chickens yours is looking great!! Maybe add sand in the run tho
Yes good idea!
$2500 I bet… looks awesome. But this isn’t what some backyard diy average person can do. This is a professional doing it. Looks awesome thoigh
Hii! Is there anyway you could tell me the amount of materials you guys bought ? 😇
Hi, I absolutely love y’all new setup I own chickens as well and I was wanting to build them a new and better coop/run could you please list all the materials y’all used thank you ❤🐓
Hi there!! This looks amazing. Your chooks will love it!!! Where does baby Michael go when both of you are out working?? Is he in a pram watching you?
Yes! He’s right there with us behind camera :) I’m not able to help Mike as much anymore for that reason but we make it work 🩵
What are the dimensions of the run n your coop? Do you hv a list of materials used?
Just that thumbnail shows that is amazing
Yay!
good job
good
Good morning 🌅🌄
WHO ELSE WANTS CHICKENS?????? ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I WOULD
LOVE TO HAVE SOME!!!
Went to tractor supply today and somehow 8 chicks ended up in my cart!!! I have no idea how that happened!!! 😂😂😂
Hahah I’m trying to stay out of there as much as I can right now since ours has chicks! Loo
😊
You should pick out multiple locks for both the main chicken coop door and the run door, because i didn’t have good enough locks or doors and I lost my whole flock 😢😢😢😢😢
we don’t free range either for predator reasons! we have hundreds of fox, coyotes, raccoons, hawks and minks in our area and my heart couldn’t take it for my flock to be wiped out 😭
I love free ranging but same thing:/ it’s either a run or no flock
@@StephanieMoratto Right! Same here😞 Everything seems to just love to eat chickens💔
👌🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
How did he attach the 4x4 to the 2x6? Can’t decided to use some lag screws or drill a hole and use a lag bolt
He just used 3” construction screws, but he says the lag bolting would be the way to go!
@@StephanieMoratto awesome thanks!!
Cute
What was the roofing you chose called?
CAN YOU LINK THE ROLL OF HARDWARE CLOTH WIRE FENCING STUFF YOU USED FROM AMAZON! 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
bit.ly/3PIpkuh :) it’s also in the description!!
Was trying to listen for the dimensions of the run. What is the basic measurements plz? I want to guesstimate 12'×20', but not sure? The only mention i heard was mentioning extending from the original idea of 16'
❤Good ❤
Parabéns 🇧🇷👏🙏
Bruno jams
👏👏👏👏👍👍
Did you use 1/2" or 1/4" hardware cloth? Sushi a great outdoor run!
1/2” :)
DO YOU HAVE LINK FOR HARDWIRE CLOTH????
