think 4' would work? I have that available...


4' generally isn't high enough, I know mine could hop up on that even with clipped wings. But it depends on if they respect the fence. Can you put up the 4' and add some chicken wire to the top?

I thought about adding a top as soon as I asked the question. I have a nice tarp I got from Harbor Freight on the pen they have now....it offers them a lot of shade. Looks like tomorrow will be a busy day!

FLABBERGASTED is what I say and purely hateful!

If he abuses an animal like that I can only imagine...I'm sorry...I'm not trying to be ugly.....(.I thought I had a mean brother)...That's just flat out wrong and sad.....

You can buy deer netting at tractor supply for about $20 per roll. My main run is dog kennel panels and the deer netting over the top to prevent birds of prey. They have a solid coop to protect them at night. Good luck!

I think that your brother took it one step too far. I am sorry about losing one of your girls. I think the 4 foot fence would work if you put netting over the top. Otherwise I would find a new place to live.

I think a large lightweight movable type tractor may serve you better than fencing since you mentioned that some tend to fly high enough to roost in your trees. A BIG tractor can be made movable if it is light enough. The PVC and wire is certainly light weight. Sorry for the loss of your hen. Your brother isn't a jerk though. You mention he warned at least once.

Thank you all so much for your "kind" words and advice. Not sure what makes people do the things they do sometimes, and probably never will. Wish me luck tomorrow as I venture out to keep my girls and boys safe!!
