Get some tposts and chicken wire and put up a new fence until you can fix the permanent one. You can get tposts and chicken wire up in less than a day and when the time comes, you can take it down in less than a day. I wouldn't wait, personally, but I don't know your situation other than what you've posted on here.
We had to put up metal posts and chicken wire around our OWN back patio--because, being new chicken owners--and, thrilled to support that the chickens get to roam our backyard every day as they please--that NO ONE told me or complained about online--that (yes, get ready to fall down laughing AND roll your eyes at me) chickens POOP EVERYWHERE--and, I could NOT believe that they'd hang out 80% of their time on our back porch and back steps--lean up against and all 5 fit up on our back sliding glass door--because we socialized with them so much that they were socialized like family vs. backyard pets. So, poop on EVERY square inch of our cement patio, stairs, etc--couldn't walk anywhere without stepping in hot, fresh chicken poop. THEN, you finally have time to go hose it down, to find that chicken poop is more like cement and does NOT easily go away or even scrape off. So, anyway, my husband (on his own volition) put up a temporary, yet effective chicken wire fence with the metal stakes meant to support the wire--and, this has mostly worked (except that we have one tenacious and relentless hen who jumps over the fence WITH BOTH wings cut to deter flight--started with one side, then tried the 2nd side)--but, less poop at least and I clean it up sooner than before the fence... You can look on craigslist for other peoples building materials--I find chicken wire for free very often on our local craigslist!
