I've been looking at cattle panels and hardware cloth. Having trouble finding the hardware cloth and when I do it's super expensive and a store suggested I use 1" square or 2x3" square fence panels instead of cattle panels and hardware cloth.
Has anyone used that? I wouldn't think that anything big enough to do much damage could get through a 2x3 hole. But then again, these are my first chickens.
We'd have the usual predators; hawks, raccoons, possums, foxes, cats, dogs. Possibly coyotes. We have neighbors with dogs so I don't know if that helps keep them at bay. I'm sure snakes and mice could get thru, but are they that big of a worry?
