Advice Needed

I have bird netting over my run for my ducks. I know it won't keep raccoons out but I got it at home depot and I think it's 14 feet wide and it's pretty long.
It's a major pain to set up but it didn't break the bank. Hardware cloth if your best bet but it's expensive and you'd have to really plan supports to hold it up.
I tied twine between 2 trees outside of the pen and connected the bird netting to the fence and it looks kinda like a circus with the netting draped over the twine. But I have all of the edges sealed.
We have a red tailed hawk at our house and no problems- yet
 
I have to put the bird netting up and take it up every season for the snow. but it keeps my run safe during the day. Not predator proof, but keeps the hawks out.

I gave up the electronetting b/c of hawks. Depending on how often it's moved, bird netting could be used, or even fishing line. If using bird netting, I'd set up the electronet so it would fit the 14' width of the bird netting.
