Hubby and I are STILL getting a coop and run together. (I know, it's been forever). These will be our first chickens and this is all new to us. We've heard hog rings are great, and do not rust, are strong, etc. We have been using UV resistant cable zip ties to tighten up our galvanized runs that are hooked up to our coop. But now we need to attach the hardware cloth (1/2" 19g) to the cage, and we are thinking of using hog rings. But my question is, what size hog rings? I'll attach a pic of the runs we have below. We are thinking of using the hog rings in ADDITION to zip ties on the rest of the cage, since zip ties don't last forever. Also what pliers are best? Thanks so much!
