I use ½" hardware cloth welded wire mostly over windows, vents and coop doors. I have also used the 1" x ½" wire. It is a heavier gauge wire. There are weasels in Florida but apparently not in my area. We have most every other predator.

I do use chicken wire but also welded wire.

@Birdsonghill I know from your post where you are in this world. Maybe add it to your profile.

Luckily we rarely have snow. It's been a long time but we have had a dusting in the past. We have lost power but it was from a hurricane. All of my waterers at the coops are auto waterers. Luckily they are at a lower grade and I was able to use a generator to fill a very large trash can and rely...

Here is rain, rain and more rain.

I made T-posts out of wood to hold my netting up. So far it works.

We are rural. I have electric wires around my coops and pens. Nothing has penetrated. When a predator touches my wires, I want them to know it. I have accidentally touched them and it really hurt. I put a cutoff switch below my fence charger to disconnect the power. I check it every evening when...

To protect my birds I have fairly large pens. I don't free range anymore due to losses in the past. I have electric wires around my coops and pens, concrete under the gates and good heavy duty netting covering all of the pens. I have had no intrusions. They have to get past the electric wires...

This is a piece of the netting I used. I originally bought some crappy netting online and it wasn't what I thought. I should have returned it but thought it would still deter aerial predators. I had an owl go through it. Each time the owl went through I put up a new piece but the owl kept going...

I use netting to cover my pens but my pens are smaller than yours. Mine are 60'x200'. I do have some wooden T-posts I made to hold up the netting because it will sag. My fences are 5' tall which is my height but I still have to duck some where it sags. About in the middle of the picture I have a...
