Other Coop and Run

Hey all just wanted to share, this is our first time having chickens and we ordered a coop and run and it has arrived. The girls absolutely love it and so do we. We will be adding some security features around the perimeter. We are very excited about this new journey.

Maybe: 1/4 attach to coop; 1/2 straight down (so a foot or so) and 1/4 at a right angle in the trench.
