    ♦-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------♦
    Material List:
    Kennel panel with gate and five 1" conduit straps to hook it to the run.
    We used all pressure treated lumber:
    two 2x6x10's
    three 2x6x12's
    three 2x4x10's
    two 2x4x12's
    three 2x4x8's
    two 4x4x10's
    25 foot roll of 1/2" hardwire cloth 3 feet wide.
    50 foot roll 2 inch by 4 inch welded wire 4 feet wide.
    3" inch screws for outdoor use/pressure treated wood.
    And we used 2x4 joist hangers for the ceiling, but you can just angle screw the boards, which is probably easier.
    The run measures 5' by 12'.
    We dug two post holes and attached the other two corners to the garage. The posts were back-filled with the dirt that was removed. No concrete was used, which we feel is better. To prevent splitting, we pre-drilled all screw holes. We used rolled metal wire mesh on the three sides and roof (smaller mesh on bottom half). And we used a black dog kennel panel with a gate so we didn't have to make a door.
    We decided to build the coop part in the garage for many reasons:
    1) We wouldn't need to dig any post holes for it since it would be out of the wind.
    2) We wouldn't need to build a leak proof roof.
    3) It will be much better to come out in the winter to tend to them and be out of the cold wind.
    4) It will be out of the elements, so it won't rot!

    Watching these older ones and learned a new idea...the way you used that clamp to support the boards...GREAT...I ALSO watched the chicken coop build and the clever way you used a sliding door tract and some " interesting stops" It is so nice to see thinking people making things work through their own innovation. You two are so inspiring.

And my, how young you 2 were 8 years ago! Anyway, now I have new binge watching stuff for the evenings after the yard and garden work. I was running out of things. Work stops earlier in the day at my age and some of the stuff I've had going on. It was your new channel "Living DIYfferent" that made me look again at older videos. Doesn't make sense to most anyone else probably, but it does to me. I think it's the getting to know you better thing.😄

    We built our duck/ chicken house and run the same way except our opening is a lot lower to the ground where we cut the opening in our barn and our run is way bigger but we have a lot birds. We can also close a door on them if we needed to.
    It works fantastic. I'm sure yours does too.

    • @DonnaRatliff1

    Great carpentry job but you need smaller wire or a second layer of coop wire and it really needs to be bigger so they can reach fresh grass and dirt because there is nothing but rocks there. Chickens need fresh tilled dirt to sunbathe in. Too bad it isn't big enough to reach some of that fresh green grass you have there.

      The pop door lets in enough light for them to see their food, water, and nesting box. We have been leaving the pop door open 24-7 so they have sun as soon as day breaks and they go outside when they wish. On a side note they do make the garage dusty.

      The pen is 5' by 12'. You will need a kennel panel with gate and four 1" conduit straps to hook it to the run. We used all pressure treated lumber: five 2x6x10's, five 2x4x10's, three 2x4x8's, two 4x4x10's. 25 foot roll of 1/2" hardwire cloth 3 feet wide. 50 foot roll 2 inch by 4 inch welded wire 4 feet wide. 3" inch screws for outdoor use/pressure treated wood. And we used 2x4 joist hangers for the ceiling, but you can just angle screw the boards, which is probably easier. Hope this helps you!

    Your plans have a couple of things wrong. You listed that you used 2x6x10 but that the run is 12’ long. Also looks like you used 5 conduit clamps instead of 4. 4 seems to hold fine but the length of run is only 10 feet

      For some reason I had the lumber listed wrong in the description all this time without knowing. Thanks for pointing that out. I think it is listed correctly now. The run really is 12' long.

    How many chickens for that size run?

    Did you cement the posts or are they secure enough being attached to the crossing boards on the ground?

      The posts are set in the ground 3 feet and backfilled with the dirt that we took out. No cement was used.
