KEXMY Rural365 Portable Chicken Run – Large Pop-Up Chicken Pen for Small Animals – Outdoor Pet Enclosure Outdoor Rabbit Run

Perfect for my 6 teens to play outside in safely around the big girls. Just wish it came with a shade topper, but a fitted twin bed sheet with clips did the trick!

We love this easy pop up and foldable enclosure for our young chicks and Guinea pig!

I use this for my teeny tiny 6oz hens when I’m working in the yard & am there to watch over them before taking them back indoors. They love to eat clover & soak up some sun! It lets plenty of sun in, but NO MOSQUITOES! Mosquitoes spread fowl pox, so I know my tiny hens are safe from mosquitoes. This run is so light & practical for moving around the yard & keeping the girls near me that I call it their playpen. Loving the openings on top too! No worry about them running thru a side door if I try to get a hen out. I just reach in from above & never have to worry about escapes. It’s not predator proof, but I’d never leave the girls unattended anyway. It’s escape proof for my serama hens & keeps them free of mosquitoes & is simply the easiest way to move them around the yard for outdoor time while I’m gardening or just watching them play. I had a lot of mixed feeling buying this run, but am SO GLAD I DID! But if anyone thinks they can use this & not stay close & watch over whatever animal is in this run, they’ll risk the animal getting attacked by predator birds, dogs, cats, or raccoons, or something. And if the animal digs under the edge, or is able to tear netting, it’ll escape & could get lost. But for my little chickens it is perfect for them to play in near me while I garden. If I’d gotten something made of metal & wood, it would’ve been heavier & awkward for the way I use this. It truly depends on what you need & how much un-supervised protection you need for your animal. This would also function perfectly for a lettuce patch or something in the garden to keep moths & flying bugs from munching on the food growing inside the net. The top openings are perfect for gardening use like this & net lets enough sun & all the rain in to the plants. I take mine inside w/ me & it folds flat & is easily put away so it’ll last a long, long time. I love the ground anchors that came w/it too. Stands up to wind very well. Net is thin but not wimpy at all. Zippers are good ones. Anchors are strong & perfect size metal stakes that don’t need a hammer. I just step on them. I use a child’s butterfly net to quickly transfer my hens from the run to their kitty carrier for easy trip back indoors. Best little portable “playpen” I could have found for my needs! But keep in mind that 6oz full grown hens are size of kittens & do not dig under the sides or hurt the run materials w/ climbing or chewing & aren’t strong like ferrets or older puppies or kittens. It really depends on how you intend to use this whether it’s right for you, & whether you’ll be there to keep your pet protected from any predator that discovers an animal in the run. It will NOT protect my hens from predators other than mosquitoes! That is my job. But it is absolutely perfect for a playpen for my hens. Works to separate a mama hen & her eggs/chicks from other hens too while still allowing them all to see & know the new babies for future flock integration.
