Brilliant build! I’m doing the trench since watching this video. I’d love to know how you upgraded the frame/roof with wood and plastic sheeting. Can you share?
Fantastic, very good idea! I have a 6 ft. high dog kennel and was going to protect it with chicken wire. But I'm going to play it safe and use hardware cloth instead. Thanks for the inspiration!
Seriously best video for what we need! We are gonna do the trench method. Love your video an dedication. You have built a solid run. We have one a bit bigger, we have recently found dug holes around the run so next week on pay day, I’m doing the trench. Thanks for this great video. Will like and subscribe.
I have just finished building one these and I’m really happy with the end result but I hope never to see another cable tie as long as I live. Took forever. Did it on my own so took me about a week to build. The frame goes up easily but fitting the mesh is really finicky. I had the same issues with fitting the mesh on the door/ends. Pleased it’s finally up. Unfortunately found your video after I’d finished mine. Hey ho.
Hi: I love this video - so helpful. Where did you order the precut wooden door? My metal door came with the run is not sturdy enough to withstand predators - I NEED THE PREDRILLED WOODEN DOOR . Thank you in advance! Keep the videos coming
Hello mate, after 11 months I'm interested to know how you have got on with rats? They're crafty little buggers so I'd be very surprised of they didn't find a way in.
Do you have your Silkies with all the chickens or are they separate from everyone? I have four silkies and getting more different breeds and curious to know if they should be separated. Thanks in advance
I have 1 Silkie and she’s mixed with other breeds but she is a little scared of the bigger ladies in the other run as when I’m there I open the doors and they all mix together.
I love this!! Thank you so much for all of the detail and what a beautiful set up you have….this is great….thank you!
Very Nice Sir! Now all You need to do now is paint the hardware cloth black so that You can see inside the run better from the outside

Very nice run. I definitely want to see when you do the roof because I need to do my roof.
How come you used plastic cable ties, if rats can chew through plastic?
Don’t worry about folks on facebook. Do what you have to do to protect your chickens. ❤
Brilliant description I have this chicken run for my rabbits 😊
Thank you for this video - very helpful! Placed my order using your discount code too!
Very helpful thank you Ben. What did you pit down as flooring? I have a problem with rain and wind coming in, it gets very muddy. Liz

Do you have a video on how you upgraded your previous one or will that be a video you do in the future? Amazing work run looks great!
Use galvanized wire. Twist ties will need to be changed yearly. They get week.
Zipper ties sorry

Can’t rats bite through the plastic zip ties?
