There is concrete all around the bottom to secure if from predators and flood waters. The screen is both 14 gauge woven horse fence to keep predators out and chicken wire to keep out the wild birds and their diseases. The enclosed area where the roost, feed barrel and scratch area (I still need to build a litter barrior) is 6 ft. by 8 ft. The covered screened area if 6 by 14 ft. It is the talk of the neighborhood! I did go a wee bit overboard, maybe. But it is for Asils!
