We're looking at getting some chickens. Does anyone have advice/resources as far as building a coop and protecting them from predators?

either raise off the ground or bury some hardware cloth a few inches down and out around edges. I overengineered the hell out of a 4x5 ft coop that could probably hold up to 20 birds. I put hardware cloth over the window and both doors and eggbox lid latch tight.

I latch everything just after sundown every night. no predator problems yet. next is to build them a run with the buried cloth as mentioned so that if we arent home we can let them in there without worrying about predators.
