Chicken fence opinions?

[ben0125]

I have been looking for a new chicken fence and I stumbled across a 50metre kit set fence. I would like some opinions on it: FENCE.

And if anyone has a 50metre fence could I please have a photo to see an estimate of how big it is.

Just would like to know about your thoughts on quality and etc.

I am going to follow this because I'm wondering about electric fencing too.

Home depot has a wire that looks just like chicken wire but is way heavier, It's made for stuccoing, but worked great to cover my chicken run. Very cheap too.

Not very tall. Many breeds of chickens could easily fly over it.

I use this fencing for my KuneKune pigs. It is incredibly easy to work with and while not the most affordable option, I will not be using anything else in the future. My chickens are free range so they can go where they please, but this fencing keeps hogs in and dogs and other critters out! The rolls I purchased are 164 or 168 feet (can't remember exactly). I got them from Wilco.
I do not have a photo of the fence in action and it's dark, but I can try to get one tomorrow. Honestly can't recommend it enough.

You have the exact same one? I'm not too worried about the price, just wanted to know the quality and if its worth buying.

You know, I am not sure ... Let me check on that. I really think it depends on the chickens. I had an Americauna that no fence could hold - she could easily clear a six foot fence. If she wanted over, she got over.
The fencing I have is the same style, looks almost exactly the same, but is shorter. I will take a pic when I can and post it. The style of fencing is great, but mine is not German-made. I'll bet the German fencing is even better!!!

Thanks, no rush though. Hopefully the 50m will be big enough for 9 chickens!
