They look great.   
Apologies for my ignorance, taking it these are for hens, how many will you be keeping in them and would you be rotating them at all. ( just enquiring as I want a few more hens and our space is limited.)

[Victorian Farmer]

new system 1 pen att the back 1 at the front all hens go in ether pen 6 highbred sussex D104 8 barred rock and 3 or 4 road island red .so 18 birds and  2 cock birds ,All chicks hatched  cock birds white and all hens brown sext link .they onley go in the runs on fine days and hard base on wet days .no more small pens to much work .

nice work  how far apart are your posts? your netting looks nice and tight what was your method for tensioning?

[Mammyshaz]

I've got room for more then.
 We have only 3 hens in 15x10ft run covered 50/50 with roofing/mesh, with 15x15ft run adjoining with centre apple tree used when we are around as too big to net for predators. My prob is the mud! in one half of the main protected run. I'm worried that we don't rotate so am considering another setup but due to not being happy with the mud with this one am looking for ideas for the second area.
Once sorted  I would like a few more hens, either older sexed or day old sexlinked as I am unable to keep cockerels and have nobody to help with my first ever dispatch and don't want to do it without experience by my side. ( confidence lacking  )
Your pens are pretty high too. They look great. I want one of those 

[Victorian Farmer]

the hard base wich dosent get no mud at the back

how high does the fence need to be to keep foxes from jumping in?
I am building a new run off a shed this week and really findng it hard to come up with the right design
also have you got any skirting on it or a bottom to it to stop foxes digging underneath?
thanks e
