Thanks for sharing with us. Just a suggestion, you can run hardware cloth around the outside perimeter of the chicken coop itself and remove the chicken wire on the front. It would allow the chickens to get under their coop for more protection from predators and from the element. Hardware cloth has smaller holes and is thicker and more durable than chicken wire. Also I’d run hardware cloth around the bottom half of the run as well. A fox, opossum, raccoon will kill your chickens as well and they can get through the holes on the cattle panel. Just a suggestion. I know when I lose a hen to a predator it always sucks because you lose an egg layer and chickens are fun!
Thanks for watching and for your suggestions 😊! We appreciate it and will keep that in mind! Yes, we don't want to lose any chicken's, especially egg layers 😊!
When I saw you nail the plastic to the frame that could be a problem. When strong winds come it will tear the plastic away from the nails. Suggestion is to take strips of wood and sandwich the plastic between the stripe of wood and the wood frame, then nail it. That way the wind can't cause the plastic to rip away from the nails. Seen it happen to other chicken runs.
You may have fixed it, but there are owls and ravens that will attack your chickens and kill them, and the opening on upper part of run will allow them in. Also you may want to run actual chicken wire around bottom part so weasels and martens will get in pretty easy on that big of panels. Just wanting to help. I have chickens, and I know you don't want to lose them. I think you have a follower in me.
Ce petit ange est absolument adorable. C'est bien de votre part de lui montrer ce que vous faires , pourquoi et comment . Merci pour elle , car elle s'en souviendra longtemps.🥰🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thanks for watching and joining us on our adventure 😊! Thanks so much for the kind words 😊! We try to involve him and have him help with everything bc he enjoys it 😊!
Thanks for watching and joining us on another adventure ❤️! Glad you enjoyed the video 😊! Thanks for the kind words about chicken run and the pizza 😊. Thanks and same to you ❤️!
Thanks for watching and joining us on our adventure 😊! So glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate the kind words 😊! We thought it turned out good and the chickens seem to approve 😊!
You guys I feel did the right thing heading up to Alaska great area to raise kids and move towards the future I’ll look forward to seeing that land in time again it seems so stressful in our country these and for in the lower 48 anyway love the great scenery awesome and the chicken s will do great 🙏👍
Thanks so much for continuing to watch 😊! We feel it was the right decision with everything going on and we want to homeschool. Glad you like the scenery!
Thanks so much for watching 😊! Glad you are enjoying our videos! It is definitely exciting to welcome another baby and work on projects/go adventures! Many more to come 😊!
👍 nice job on the whole chicken coop / run. I'm thinking the wind may blow snow in side there and having opening on both ends could result in the wind tearing the plastic. New subscriber and enjoying your videos! Cheers! Jason edit: Love the kiddos curly hair 😊
Thanks for watching and for the feedback 😊! We were going to, but since we will be feeding and checking on the chickens everyday, we will remove snow at that time.
Thanks for watching 😊! Yes, there are and we love our chickens 😊! Hope you enjoyed the video and if you haven't yet, check out our chicken coop build video link below 😊! czcams.com/video/etBYZRXR7uU/video.html
Is this your first time with chickens? Have you had chickens before? I am a little afraid of some of your tasks. I wish you well, and hope you have a wonderful channel. I did subscribe!! I am hoping the best for you and your sweet family!
Ok just warched this the chicken coop nice job but yes there is a but. You have it so high in the air so much wasted area under costing you to heat. The run is good but predators will get under so easy if 1 bird is out at night it will be free food. The chickens like height for roosting so all that space under could have been better used. All in all for someone just starting out you do you. Good job but research research especially in Alaska it is a little tougher up there. ❤ keep up good work
Nice easy to build chicken run. I think it would be a lot easier on you if you modified your nesting boxes to open in the front rather than the top. (Or take about a foot off the "legs" to lower the coop. - that would help with the angle of the ramp and make it easier for the girls to go down the ramp.)
Of course, being unfamiliar with raising chickens, that chicken run doesn’t have to totally enclosed with chicken wire on each end? That pizza looked good. Till next time gang!
We have it closed about halfway on each end with wire fencing. They will stay in their run and we don't have any predators in our area. Thanks for watching 😊!
Thanks for watching and joining us on our journey 😊! The chicken door is solar powered. We bought it off Amazon if you would like to look at it more 😊! So far, it has been a great door! amzn.to/46hjsNW

And you can use roofing nails. They have a thick plastic washer on them and hold better.

The case looks great but the stair is a bit to narrow and high too , my thought,
Thanks for watching and for the feedback 😊!
You need to support that chicken run roof.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback 😊! We were going to, but since we will be feeding and checking on the chickens everyday, we will remove snow at that time.

Great video! Love all the family moments! Chickens are definitely spoiled 😂. Pizza looked very good!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it as much as we did and yes the chickens are already pretty spoiled 😊!

Are you not concerned about critters digging under the wood foundation and getting at the chickens?
Thanks for watching 😊! We don't have too many critters where we are.
How is the chicken door powered?
Thanks for watching and joining us on our journey 😊! The chicken door is solar powered. We bought it off Amazon if you would like to look at it more 😊! So far, it has been a great door!
