I had a very clear vision of it in my head, before starting, but as I go along the results look... different.

The run is all free-standing; not an actual building or nuthin' like that.

Wire is up all around the perimeter. I still need to make/mount a second gate, put wire over the top (with help from family), and secure the bottom edge all the way around.
I may be slow, and not very good, but it'll work.

Gate is done, but I still need to get the wire put over the top.

There's a local mouse-hunter hanging around, and it may decide to go for a bigger meal.

A few people came over today, and got the entire top of the run covered. There are still some spots that need to be finished (small gaps where sheet metal meets welded wire), but I can lock up my chickens again.

The chickens thank you and the local carpenter's union pretends they don't know you
