OK, after 3 chicken slaughters by dogs or some other animal in 5 years, I am giving up on my chicken wire coop. A friend is helping me build a new, improved coop using 1"X1/2" hardware cloth. We will be burying a few inches of wire to prevent a predator from digging under. My question is, when wire and metal walls are buried, do they rust and rot? How long can I expect them to last?
Thanks!
Thanks!
