Chicken wire? To keep predators away? Never. Cheap chicken wire was designed to keep chickens confined not to keep them safe. 2 x 4 welded wire could be a problem unless the chickens stay well away from the edges otherwise something is going to reach in and grab one and it won’t be pretty.Due to covid, everyone is putting up animals, there is a shortage here for hardware cloth 1/2 x 1/2 squares. we are building a chicken tractor and I am trying to decide if I use chicken wire (not my first choice). PVC covered chicken wire or 2 by 4 in welded wire. we have no racooons or snake predators to worry about but we do have a fisher cat that routinely prowls through our area. Which do you all recommend and why ? My husband thought we could simply double wrap with chicken wire
