your site drains freely,
is on a high point of your property – not in a natural sump hole,
that there are gutters and downpipes fixed to all roof lines – yes even the smallest hutch needs proper drainage!
that the flow from the downpipes goes away from the hen house and land immediately adjacent,
that the rain can’t get into your run, this can be prevented by a sheet of canvas over the netting, some plywood. Even shade cloth can stop a fair amount of moisture getting in!
