First year having chickens.I have construction plastic fencing and some chicken wire over my run and its kept hawks and foxes out of my run all summer. Its was all held up with bailing wire but we had our first snow fall (6 or so inches so far) and the bailing wire snapped under the weight so i have to build some wooden supports to keep the plastic and wire up off where its supposed to be. Live and learn. Maybe someone can learn from my run failure. (i couldn't find poulty netting in any store near me and i didnt want to wait to have it shipped from an online store so i improvised and it worked great til today)
