pen fencing material: welded wire (hole size?) or chain link
which would you choose?
Pen will be 8x15 -20. It will be attached to a shed coop, covered with something - not sure what, aproned 3 feet up and L'd out with something appropriate- not sure what. I swear I have been studying this site every day for months until my eyes are rolling on the floor. The chicks are fully feathered, the shed goes up Monday and it's time to make a decision.
A kind local BYC neighbor says we have all the predators including mink and weasels - who knew?! They will be closed up at night but home alone in their pen in our backyard during the day. I guess stray dogs could get in. It will definately be hawk proof. I want to get it right the first time so I don't come home to any surprises.
Can you help me decide?
Thanks in advance
