    You need to put a sleeve on the drill for the bit until Robby gets more experience with the drill. Being the vertically challenged person I am...He also should also be one more step up using a bigger ladder so his arm is in line with the drill for leverage. You're a good dad teaching both kids how to use tools. They will definitely appreciate it when they get older.

The rest is the same height front and back. There's a tunnel from the run to the coop which I did in a different video I think. That allows them to go from the coop to the run and back. It also allows me to cut off the run from the coop if I need to do so.

So I can bring in mulch from the front and not go all around my house on a suburban lot. And 2 doors in the back. Good thing because only one fits my full sized wheel barrow for cleaning out the coop instead of the small cart. Mine will be a lower pitch because it's connected to the shed/coop. My shed it pretty tall with a floored storage area. I want this roof mainly to catch water.
