Giantex 13ft Large Metal Chicken Run, Walk-in Chicken Coop with Waterproof Cover, Poultry Habitat Hen Cage Run House Rabbits Pen House for Outdoor Backyard Farm (13 x 10 ft, Spire)

I'm using this as a frame for a greenhouse as it's significantly larger than anything else here listed as a greenhouse for the same, or lower quality and price. So far, it works just fine for that purpose. I put it up in about an hour and a half with minimal headache.The included instructions are decent enough, and the parts are marked fairly well. Though I recommend looking everything over carefully before proceeding with the build because I missed a few things on the first few steps and had to backtrack.That' really wasn't a big deal, it's a totally modular setup so even setup wrong, it was still right if that makes sense?NO TOOLS are required to assemble the entire thing, it all snaps together. That is aside from the door, which does require a small, included wrench.It's a LITTLE wobbly, but I haven't anchored it down yet, nor have I added any additional bracing. Both things I plan to do to make it a viable greenhouse.Honestly, IDK if I'd trust it to keep large dogs or other predators away from chickens as advertised though. My dog is an American Pitbull Terrier, about 65 pounds and I doubt it'd keep even her out for very long if she really wanted to get in.Mine is also, like I said currently unanchored and on unleveled ground. If you bolted this to a plywood base or something, It should be more than enough then.No comment yet on the included chicken wire roll or UV cover.. That's all just going in storage until I find a use for it. Seems like pretty standard chicken wire though. I'm sure it's fine.Had this included steaks to anchor it, I'd have given it 5-stars, but it doesn't and I had to get them from Depot. So only 4-stars. For a free-standing, snapped together structure. It's not bad at all. I was sort of impressed really. It DOES include anchoring points in the feet, so that's nice. One less thing to have to make / do.Also, this is NOT the same diameter poles as a standard chain-link fence would have, just so everyone knows and isn't confused. They're about half as wide in their OD, but still fairly thick. Again, I was pleasantly surprised here. I was expecting something much thinner and cheaperTL;DR:Decent greenhouse frame that should have some additional anchoring and support. Don't know that I'd trust it to keep hungry predators away from chickens.

The package came damaged (boxes), and UPS left in the rain, but all the parts and components were there and undamaged. Frame assembly went easy. Attaching the wire mess was slow, but acceptable. Plenty of wire to overlap as appropriate. Some reviews noted the wire wasn't sturdy, we don't share the same concern, and are very happy with our set-up vs. the cost. The shade tarp does what is supposed to do, and it will collect water, but it is acceptable if you monitor twice a day like we do, and push out the water that may collect. It is limited to how much it can sag by how much you commit to tying the wires to the frame (tedious, but worth it). Overall, very happy and glad we purchased this product. We recommend it!

I joined this 9.5' x 6.5' chicken enclosure with an aviary that was built from wood and wire mesh. It was joined from the back so I had extra chicken wire. Then I laid down a cement outer parameter which I hope will hold it down under strong winds as we do get them here from time to time. "The poles offer a good frame for mist-ers and for hanging perches or toys. I doubled the chicken wire on the top and used 1/4" wire mesh for the walls. I shut off entry of the door as there is a lot of space around the door that I filled with wire. I'm hoping it will keep all my budgies, cockatiels, parrotts and other birds in while keeping out squirrels, opossums, raccoons, skunks but I'm concerned about rats. It added like another room to the wood and wire built aviary and was very complimentary to that structure. Easy to build for someone experienced with building things from kits.NOTE: After 1 year, the tarp completely deteriorated; after 2 yrs, the mesh was in tatters. All due to full sun exposue. Otherwise the frame and construction is very sound. I lined all of it with 1/4" hardware cloth then put chicken wire over the entire structure to hopefully deter rats and mice. Mice got in anyway and are colonizing within the structure. To drive them out, I put scented cotton balls, soaked in peppermint oil and citronella oil. I'll get some corn oil and linseed oil and soak more cotton balls. My parrots have a very weak sense of smell so it's ok for them. Hope it works. We will see. But don't depend on the material coverings. Poor quality and they don't last very long. As is, the pipe material is will made and strong and it lasts forever. I'm also covering it with clear polycarbonate sheeting and plastic sheeting underneath. This allows sunlight and also has UVB protection. Am in the process now and making a gable roof to keep the rain out. Otherwise the rain puddles in the middle. Lots of planning going into this but the pipe structure is sound and workable with 45" metal tubes on angle and 72" long metal tubes on horizontal. Very workable. You'll have to do something about the door though. Large spacing between the door frame and door which allows rats free access.

Pain to put together cause of the 500 zip ties… but chickens are happy, and wife is happy. Can’t rest out a price on that…
