Needed to maintain the walkway from front to back yard, so I dug a 10’ tunnel to connect the coop area & a 20’ x 15’ run area. 16” wide by 16” tall. Used deck boards and galvanized fencing for the top with spaces for light & air. One hatch was inspired by “Lost” & the other is a toilet seat (new).
Two unexpected benefits. The girls like hanging out in the tunnel… especially when its windy. The second is that the platform over the run is great for feeding treats and delivering announcements and inspirational speeches.
